Are you sure the timeout isn't 2mins 30secs? I had the same problem and it was related to DNS problems.

  Subject: Telnet Problems


  Hi,
   
  I recently installed freebsd 4.0, and was having no problems with it untill i used the sysinstall option to add a package from cd.
   
  I have done this before and had no problems with it, but when using this to install pine 4.2 it slowed down connections from remote computers.
   
  Telnet'ing in from another computer on my network before installing pine was instant, but after installing it 
   
  FreeBSD/i386 (aurora.lanithium.staticky.com) (ttyp0)

  login: lanithium
  Password:
   
  got to that and froze for between 5 and 10 minutes before it actually continued on.
   
  Just wondering if you knew about this problem and could help me find a way to resolve it as it is rather annoying.

  Thanks in advance,

  Matthew
