    when i 'ssh' from machineA to machineB it seems to take about 20secs
    before I get a prompt on machineB; from machineB to machineA it is also
    instantaneous. A `strace ssh machineB` from machine A gives four entries
    of
         5.000503 socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 4
    Could somebody enlighten me what this is doing and why it is likely to
    take 5 seconds?

    machineA is running Debian 2.4.18-bf2.4 with unstable updates and sits
    behind a router

    machineB is running 2.4.27-1-686-smp with testing updates

    Thanks,
