It might be waiting for a test to see if any other machine is using that IP address on that subnet. The time delay seems to be reasonable for a timeout to a whohas arp request. Looking at the network traffic should allow you to refute this or add some more suggestive evidence that this is the cause. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
