Thanks to all those that responded so quickly to my question. The answer is that our DNS server was messed up. That was the response from most of the people that sent email. There were a few however that gave alternate things to check. Most notably, the /usr/sbin/quota command in the /etc/.login file.

Hirsch Ryan McEwan Peter Ondruska Yura Pismerov Robert Reynolds Steve Sandau Frank Smith Jordi Vidal Original Question: ------------------ I have a Netra X1 in our system that has been working fine with Solaris 8. It is a standard "out of the box" configuration with nothing extra installed on it. For some reason, after changing the IP address of the system several times, it has started taking an extremely long time to log users in. When I attempt to "rlogin" to the system (telnet works the same way), it prompts for the password and when I type <cr>, it immediately prints out the last login information message and then sits there idle for about 45 seconds before giving me the prompt. After login, eveything works fine and response is normal. I've tried renaming the user's ".profile" file (he is running the borne shell) and ".login" file. I have also tried renaming the files in /etc/skel. None of that made any difference. I'm guessing that the system is doing some sort of network access and getting a timeout but I have no idea where to begin to look. Any ideas?Received on Wed Nov 28 22:08:21 2001
