I am using Windows95 with a 10MB Ethernet connection to a FreeBSD 2.2.5 box. Apache works fine (fast) so it doesn't seem to be a DNS thing (simple DNS with only one box, one domain, nslookup and ping are fast from the win95 box). It appears to be taking inetd a long time to issue the login and causes timeouts. (just remembered mail does the same thing, all login dependant). I've seen this question posted in a couple of places (I've been virtually everywhere) and the only response was possibly DNS. If it was DNS, why would http work fine? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, I've spent at least 8 hours on this.
