However this doesn't seem to be it. I would think that if the reverse lookup was the problem, it would only be a problem while waiting for the initial login prompt and not the pass word prompt, correct? I don't know what's going on here as it used to work just fine and now the delays. Obviously something has changed but I don't have any idea what that is because I haven't added anything that I recall.
