strange ssh problem
Hi all....
I have fedora 9 machine with sshd running
when i try to connect to one of my machines in the network say
Code:
ssh gaurav@172.17.70.18
It will take hardly a second to connect...
Whereas for other systems in the same subnet it takes at least 2 minutes to connect...
Why is this so...??
Can anyone help me with this....Any help will be greatly appreciated. |

Who can tell? You don't give any information about your network, where the other systems are, how you're trying to connect (hostname or ip?), or what those other machines are running.
Chances are, you're either having a DNS issue, or your system is trying to do a reverse-lookup on the IP address, and is timing out. Either put the entries in your hosts file, or get up-to-date information in your DNS server. |
