slowly rlogin

[cheri_2]

Hi all . I have Red-hat 7.2 on HP lp2000r running good . On another PC i have Red-hat 6.2 that doing monitoring via rlogin or rsh.
The way via FW is "open" and rlogin is work but take to match of time ~90s .... In the reverse way (to RH 6.2 ) rlogin is immediaetly ~0.5s . My be any secure rules or checks making rlogin to RH 7.2 slowest ?

Thank's in advance

I've seen this happen several times when using RH7.x. What usually turns out to be the problem is that the RH7 box can't resolve a name for the other box. Try adding the other box into the /etc/hosts table and see if that gets rid of the long wait.

Cheri,

Would definately suspect name resolution issue, especially when the reverse direction works quickly (not a network issue per se).
