Hi Eric,
did you ever try to tcpdump what's going on?
I wouldn't mind betting that it's the ident(d)-lookups that time you out ...
just try the following while your script is up and running:
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 113 -j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset
after you've done that, everything should work fine ...
Regards
Karl
