The server is taking so long to reply because it can not resolve your IP
address against a domain name.
The reason is that your DNS server appears to not be running. That
message appears to show that you're trying to run BIND from within
inetd...and if so, that's the incorrect way to do it. BIND (named) should
be run as a standalone service.
