My guess is you're on to something with host resolution. I've had the =
same thing.
The inconsistency can be explained if you are sometimes connected to the =
Internet and sometimes not and your DNS setup is searching the servers =
in its root cache to resolve the host of the client. If you're offline =
it just sits there and if you're online it gives up right away. Try =
killing the DNS process on the server to see if the lag disappears.

Subject: FTP and Telnet to Linux
Hi,
I hope someone can help with this.
RH Linux 5.1 very generic install
Apache runs great
Login using telnet is slow takes 45-70 sec.
Ftp using WS_FTPLE on 98 to Linux is inconsistent sometimes right away =
and
sometimes naught, same on 95.
I Can login to ftp from telnet session, using command-line ftp =
instantly.
Is it trying to resolve host to IP when trying through the network? If =
this
were the case, why the inconsistency? Patches?
Thanks in advance
