I know the answer to this is probably in the mail archives somewhere, but for some reason www.freebsd.org appears to down or unreachable from here. Anyway I've been seeing problems with ftp being slow to connect. I connect and after typing in the username and password it seems to stall sometimes for 30 seconds or more before I get the '230 User foo logged in.' line. I seem to remember someone saying that it had to do with reverse DNS lookups and waiting for them to timeout, but I don't remember the solution. I'm running ftpd from inetd.conf with 'ftpd -lR' if that matters. When I disable it in inetd, HUP inetd, and try to start ftpd with 'ftpd -lRD' I see the following in /var/log/messages. Jan 24 22:11:08 db ftpd[69699]: control socket: Protocol not supported Any ideas?
