ssh hangs after SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT
Hi All,

My servers suddenly started giving problem across all the machines.
When I try to connect, the ssh debug output stops near the
SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT and then continues after a minute or so.

Is this only occurring during debug sessions?

Re: ssh hangs after SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT [ In reply to ]
Hi,

Sorry about the late reply. Finally we figured out the problem to be
with the DNS server. The DNS server could not resolve the hostname of
the server, and it takes about 1 minute to revert to the /etc/hosts
file. The solution we found was to specify the name resolution order
to be first local and then bind, to prevent any further problems.

Thanx for the reply.
Cheers,
Kosala
