I agree with John: the communications between the server and the client under X are trying to resolve the hostname which fails and they have to wait for the DNS query timeout.
I'm willing to believe that (and will edit /etc/hosts as soon as I next boot the laptop) but why would DNS have an effect on speed of access to USB disk drives? It takes extra time to mount them even from a text console when the machine is in this condition. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
