So I get a "connected" and then it waits for a minute or more before I get the login prompt. I am running named but that only means that I know who I am. If anyone outside my network wants to know what my ip reverse resolves to they are out of luck. I get the same timeout delay wether or not I try to connect to an ip or a fully qualified domain.
