passwd promting delay.

[fizan]

in non -trusted hp-ux 2660 where will be the user defined policies will be set.

while login into server it asks imdtly for login id::
but takes time foe asking passwd::

so time delay in checking whether the user exists there in box or not.

i alternately checked with the one more user it also takes time delay.

[fizan]

why nobody in the forum replies for the quiries whether am asking any ting wrongly

[Johnson Punniyalingam]

it depends on the load of your server,

[johnsonpk]

To eliminate the potential delay due to name resolution, add the hostnames to /etc/hosts and update nsswitch.conf to have file before dns lookup.

[fizan]

in /etc/nsswitch.conf also

passwd: compat
group: compat
hosts: files dns [NOTFOUND=return]
networks: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files
protocols: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files
rpc: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files
publickey: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files
netgroup: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files
automount: files nis
aliases: files nis
services: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files

its correct only

[johnsonpk]

Hi,

Can you check the dns lookup seetings in the ssh configuration file?

look for an entry "UseDNS yes " in /etc/opt/ssh/sshd_config file ..If it is yes try changing it to no and restart sshd daemon.

#/sbin/init.d/secsh stop
AND
#/sbin/init.d/secsh start
Note: this starting and stopping wont affect curret running ssh connection..how ever be sure to have console opened as an alternative.

perhaps you should assign some points in order to motivate people:

"fizan
I have assigned points to 140 of 393 responses to my questions."

[Viktor Balogh]

passwd: compat
are you using NIS?

what is the output of 'ypwhich'?

[fizan]

boss kindly check and say for whom i have not assigned points ,i will assign immeditaley.
