If I understood you incorrectly (and everybody else understood you correctly), then I would add to everyone's suggestions, this: take a look to see if you have avahi-daemon running. This little creature have a tendency to cause session setup delays, even with all DNS off... if you do have it, take it off if it's not needed (and it probably isn't...)<br>

I have it running on two linux systems, along with DNS servers, DHCP servers, asterisk systems, PS3video (UPNP) servers, netatalk, user space NFS and samba servers, CUPS servers and so and no slowdown.<br>

Maybe I'm lucky.<br><font color="#888888">

<br>But the fact is a fact, I've found out it's avahai by stracing the slow ssh connect, seen it stuck communicating with avahi. Then I just stopped the service, and SSH went from 2-3 seconds delay to immediate. Restarted the service, and it is slow again. 100% reproducible - I can't argue with facts :-)<br>
