Subject:   SSH fails after DNS hiccup

After a recent DNS outage (now resolved), I can no longer connect (SSH) from
LAN boxes to our FreeBSD servers. The connection is made, but just hangs
there. Here's some output:

debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted.
debug1: restore_uid
debug1: ssh_connect: getuid 1001 geteuid 1001 anon 1
debug1: Connecting to [-- snip --] port 22.
debug1: temporarily_use_uid: 1001/1001 (e=1001)
debug1: restore_uid
debug1: temporarily_use_uid: 1001/1001 (e=1001)
debug1: restore_uid
debug1: Connection established.
debug1: identity file /home/jbaty/.ssh/identity type -1
debug1: identity file /home/jbaty/.ssh/id_rsa type -1
debug1: identity file /home/jbaty/.ssh/id_dsa type -1

Then just hangs there indefinitely. The log says...

	sshd[826]: fatal: Timeout before authentication for 192.168.0.7


For a while I was unable to connect from anywhere, but after an hour or two I
could connect from "outside" boxes just fine. 

I'm hoping someone could guide me as to where to look for a solution. This
has happened twice, both right after a DNS problem.

Thanks.
