I have a 4.3-STABLE system that I have enabled ssh on.  AFAIK, it is a plain
vanilla ssh included with the base distribution.  The only thing I remember
doing to turn it on was add SSH_ENABLE= "YES" to the rc.conf file.
Initially it worked fine and responded quickly, even more quickly than the
telnetd daemon.

Now all of a sudden, it seems to take about a minute after connecting with
an ssh client (I'm using PuTTY on Win 2K).  Then I can enter my user name
but have to wait another minute for the password prompt.  After entering the
password and waiting yet another minute, then the session responds normally.

I haven't changed or added anything recently and have no idea why things are
running so slowly.  I even tried a reboot but have the same problem.  And I
get the same response even when connecting by specifying an IP address and
not a machine name.

Any ideas or clues as to what might be going on or what to check would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Drew
