Subject:   Curious delay in telnet

When I first telnet from my FB4.1 system to my FB4.1 system, it prints:

   Trying 192.168.168.42...
   Connected to fb42.
   Escape character is '^]'.

It then waits quite a long while (about a minute) before printing:

   FreeBSD/i386 (fb42.cfcl.com) (ttyp0)

   login:

OTOH, if I already have a telnet session open on fb42 (or have recently
had a session open), a new session comes up with no delay.  I wonder if
this is some sort of DNS or other time-out and how I might track it down.

-r

P.S.  Both machines are on a NATified LAN with controlled physical access,
       so telnet's (lack of) security is not an issue.
