I am having exactly the same problem that Ilya described. The problem appeared out of nowhere 1 week ago on many (but not all) of our production servers running COPSSH. No errors, but an SSH login that used to take 3-5 seconds now takes > 90 seconds. I can clear see a delay of exactly 45 seconds here:
... debug1: Trying private key: /home/dbmsmonitor/.ssh/id_rsa debug3: no such identity: /home/dbmsmonitor/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: Offering DSA public key: /home/dbmsmonitor/.ssh/id_dsa debug3: send_pubkey_test debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply (45 second delay). ... followed by a shorter, second delay at the same place the Ilya described. Not all of our production servers (running COPSSH on Windows) have the problem, but even rebooting a server can make the problem appear. I've tried: - Different SSH clients (ssh, putty, etc.). - Changing SSHD_CONFIG options. including turning off DNS (I can see that it gets past the DNS lookup OK). - Specifying many of the SSH -o client options. - Reinstalling COPSSH. Any ideas? I'm desperate. :@( Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/slow-ssh-login-on-a-cygwin-machine-tp5558p92399.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
