Probably a DNS issue?

what does /etc/resolv.conf look like?

what does /etc/nsswitch.conf look like??

What are the network connection speeds?

What is the system load??

I'd also be looking at hpux patches for networking .... arpa transport etc etc ...

Also you may find RX's trace facility might show something : RX -> Tools -. client trace.

Out of interest is this problem occuring for X sessions or straight forward telnet connections ?

Are there any devices such as routers or switches involved here ? Are the hpux and PC on the same subnet .

also you may want to use ping at the time of the next delay along with nslookup on the unix box to see if there are any stats or problems with name resolution generated.

Lastly is only one system affected or do you find the issue on several pc/unix systems ?

Thank you for your fast answer.
I have more info about my probleem:
This is my etc/resolv.conf file
domain naam.naam.com
nameserver 192.169.145.15
nameserver 192.169.145.16

This is my /etc/nsswitch.conf
passwd: compat
group: compat
hosts: dns [NOTFOUND=return] files [NOTFOUND=return] nis
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
services: nis [NOTFOUND=return] files

The network connection speed is 100 MB
The Same probleem i have with telnet session
I have 3 unix-box's . With another box's i have not problem.
PC and Unix is on the same subnet
The unix machine is conected on HP 2500 switch .This one is conected to hp 4000 switch. I'm conected to HP 4000 Switch.
If i use TOP i see nothing.
You have ask me what is the system load of my machine.
How i kan chack this ?
Sometimes if i have this probleem i used ping command and evrything looks good.
I have 2 routers in my network. dafault Gateway and RAS

Sorry my english lenguage is not relly good

Thank You

With "top" you should see the number of processes running, plus you should see your idle %.

What I would do is replace the "return"'s in your nsswitch.conf file to "continue"'s, like this:

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

How long does an nslookup take?

The next time you have "slow" conditions, try using the IP address, it should be faster, if not then you have OTHER issues!
