My DNS box has my only "real" IP, 216.231.43.140. I can
ssh *into* sage/ns1 from my laptops at once; but sshing
(*out*) takes at least 2 minutes. This is a major mystery
except that in dhcpd.conf I have most of my private
servers 'hardwired'; the one that is not listed is not
reachable.

Hmmm. Is this the attempt? (10.249) is the laptop.
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:10:a4:06:cb:39 via dc1
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.0.0.249 to 00:10:a4:06:cb:39 via dc1
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: Dynamic and static leases present for 10.0.0.249.
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: Remove host declaration zen or remove 10.0.0.249
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: from the dynamic address pool for 10.0/8
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 10.0.0.249 (10.0.0.1) from 00:10:a4:06:cb:39 via dc1
Nov 8 21:10:45 sage dhcpd: DHCPACK on 10.0.0.249 to 00:10:a4:06:cb:39 via dc1
Nov 9 00:10:12 sage dhcpd: Dynamic and static leases present for 10.0.0.247.
Nov 9 00:10:12 sage dhcpd: Remove host declaration tao or remove 10.0.0.247
Nov 9 00:10:12 sage dhcpd: from the dynamic address pool for 10.0/8
Nov 9 00:10:12 sage dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 10.0.0.247 from 00:d0:b7:f0:de:ea via dc1
Nov 9 00:10:12 sage dhcpd: DHCPACK on 10.0.0.247 to 00:d0:b7:f0:de:ea via dc1
(Again, sshing from 10.249 to 10.1 is immediate; sshing from 10.1 out
to, say, 10.247 takes a couple minutes...) Also, if the daemon is issuing
a lease, why can't I ping from the laptop? or any other server?

You may be right, altho www.dnsreport.com doesn't see anything.
If I get my DNS files to you, can you tell? --I've been using
bind-9 going on 4 years. After kiddie scripts kept bumping bind-8
off. I'm using v9.3,0 and maybe somethng is misconfigured.
