	Greetings,
	I have a DEC station 5000/200 running Ultrix 4.2a that acts as a
server/gateway for our network of ALPHAs and DECstations. Recently,
logging in (rsh, rlogin and/or telnet), running su, and running sendmail
have started taking about 2 minutes; last week this was not the case. I
can run things like sudo, which runs immediately, as well other
executables. I have checked and there is nothing utilizing the CPU,
there is plenty of free RAM and swap space, there are no errors being
logged in syserr, load averages are 0.09, 0.24, 0.00, and as far as I
can tell there are no sniffers running (ifconfig does not reveal
promiscuous mode on either interface). I run wrappers, have been for
over two years, and neither syslog nor my wrappers log file are logging
messages at an unreasonable rate. When you attempt to log into the
machine, the wrapper messages are logged immediately and then the login
process stalls for about 2 minutes. I have rebooted the machine and the
problem persists. I checked through /, /var, /bin, /usr/bin, and /etc
and none of the files appear to have been tampered with.
	Does anybody have any ideas? 
	Thanks,
	doug
