Mark,

In this particular case (I think) is not with DNS... When I had this issue,
even accessing thru ip address I had an unreasonable delay logging in by
ssh. An ssh -v show me sshd trying lots of auth schemas, and giving up after
an "auth timeout, trying next"... So I disabled the failing schemas in
sshd_config and now I am able to logon faster than I can spell ssh.
