You often can't rely on bootup timestamps as most of it has to be buffered until being reported somewhat later, as there's nowhere for syslog to write to, but in any case, everything else is logged at the same second until: > Dec 23 23:03:13 vrajah-bsd kernel: re0: link state changed to UP > Dec 23 23:03:13 vrajah-bsd ntpd[605]: ntpd 4.2.8p4-a (1): Starting > Dec 23 23:03:14 vrajah-bsd ntpd[606]: leapsecond file ('/etc/ntp/leap-seconds'): good hash signature > Dec 23 23:03:14 vrajah-bsd ntpd[606]: leapsecond file ('/etc/ntp/leap-seconds'): loaded, expire=2015-12-28T00:00:00Z last=2015-07-01T00:00:00Z ofs=36 > Dec 23 23:03:14 vrajah-bsd ntpd[606]: leapsecond file ('/etc/ntp/leap-seconds'): will expire in less than 5 days > Dec 23 23:03:14 vrajah-bsd sm-mta[643]: My unqualified host name (vrajah-bsd) unknown; sleeping for retry > Dec 23 23:04:12 vrajah-bsd sm-mta[643]: unable to qualify my own domain name (vrajah-bsd) -- using short name Where it waited for all but a minute .. > Dec 23 23:04:12 vrajah-bsd sm-msp-queue[646]: My unqualified host name (vrajah-bsd) unknown; sleeping for retry Then almost another minute, util you logged in and su'd .. > Dec 23 23:05:10 vrajah-bsd su: vrajah to root on /dev/pts/0 > Dec 23 23:05:12 vrajah-bsd sm-msp-queue[646]: unable to qualify my own domain name (vrajah-bsd) -- using short name So there's ~2 minutes delay there. sendmail (mta and msp both) at least are unhappy about your hostname, and sleep on it. I don't know whether that's significant or related to the longer delay you report. I just skimmed through your dmesg, but didn't spot anything glaringly obvious. FWIW, cheers, Ian
