The tcpdump capture shows that the OpenSSH server tries to resolve the the IP address of the client by doing the series of 4-8 PTR queries to the UDP port 53 of 127.0.0.1. The timeout takes about 38-40 seconds. After that I get the password prompt as usual. Has anyone anyone seen this behavior before or know of the solution? Any input will be apreciated. Thanks.
