Thanks for your reply.

I already had -R. Changing this to -RH has halved the delay (from approx. 
22 seconds to 11 seconds), but there still is a delay.

For testing, I am telnetting directly to an IP address:port number. I have 
also put an entry into /etc/hosts for the client system (and hosts is 
searched before a DNS lookup).

Thanks


Dave
