If you're just logging in, the only thing the host really needs is to
be able to authenticate you. So if you have local authentication, a
local home directory, and no network drives that need to be mounted,
it should work without a network connection.
If it's a DNS issue, something has to be looking to resolve a name.
You don't need name resolution to log in unless you authenticate to
NIS or LDAP (or something similar), or are requesting some network
storage. If you're checking nsswitch.conf, I would check the passwd,
group, shadow and automount lines.

Thanks, this was one was correct:

I never thought of this so i did a grep on the directory (/etc) and
this is the result:
grep dns *
jwhois.conf: "\\.be$" = "whois.dns.be";
jwhois.conf: "\\.hr$" = "www.dns.hr";
jwhois.conf: "\\.lu$" = "whois.dns.lu";

jwhois.conf: "\\.com\\.uy$" = "dns.antel.net.uy";
jwhois.conf: "www\\.dns\\.hr" {
jwhois.conf: "dns\\.antel\\.net\\.uy" {
krb5.conf: dns_lookup_realm = false
krb5.conf: dns_lookup_kdc = false

Ok, how do I stop it? I checked to make sure bind is not running
Make sure that /etc/nsswitch has hosts files dns
and not hosts dns files
is a start.

Subject: login delay without Internet
I have noticed a behaviour of fedora core (5 or 8) not sure which
version, which I would like to stop. If I login on, when the
computer has Internet access, the process happens fairly
quickly. If the computer does not have Internet access, the
process takes a few minutes, considerably longer than if it does
have Internet access.
What is going on, more importantly I do I stop this?
