Shalom,

This is almost always DNS related.

1) See if you can ping the listings in /etc/resolv.conf
2) See if it works faster using the numeric ip address to connect.
3) tail -f /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log on the 7420 to see if there are errros.
4) Check overall performance http://www.hpux.ws/system.perf.sh
5) ipconfig /all on the laptop

Hi Alamgir,

Check your DNS settings.

Check /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/resolv.conf files.

Configure /etc/nsswitch.conf to check /etc/hosts file first for resolving the hostnames.
Following sample nsswitch.conf try to resolve hostname from /etc/hosts first and then from dns server.
-------------------------------------------
bash-3.00# cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# /etc/nsswitch.compat:
#
# @(#)B11.23_LR
#
# An example file that could be copied over to /etc/nsswitch.conf; it
# uses NIS (YP) in conjunction with files.
#

passwd: compat
group: compat
hosts: files dns [NOTFOUND=return]
ipnodes: files
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
bash-3.00#
-----------------------------------------

Also confirm /etc/resolv.conf has the correct entries.

bash-3.00# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain yourdomain.com
nameserver 10.10.10.10 (IP address of ur DNS server)
bash-3.00#
--------------------------------------------

Looks like all the delays while booting is related to same problem.Once you resolve main issue other problems will be solved.
