What I have never gotten, is why on my machines (no specific distro, just
everything built from source and installed by me) login takes a long time,
unless I have portmap running.

My /etc/nsswitch.conf would seem to be right:

passwd:         files
group:          files
shadow:         files

hosts:          files dns
networks:       files dns

protocols:      files
services:       files
ethers:         files
rpc:            files

netgroup:       files

What else could effect that?
