<div class="moz-cite-prefix">It sounds like dns response isn't
working, so sshd delays while trying to reverse resolve you
instead of getting a generic response from the netblock owner dns
(or a simple failure). You can disable reverse lookups in
sshd.conf too, but it's good to log that sort of thing. You will
start seeing cracking attempts soon.<br>
<br>
Mine logged me in just fine right now, but I have forward and
reverse dns setup for service records and such. Your local
hostname resolution can also wreak havoc on things if not right
forward and reverse, digitalocean is somewhat particular about
this I found. I just used an extra domain I hadn't done much
with, pointed the dns records at the domain host, and digitalocean
does the reverse. <br>
<br>
I use it as a minecraft server, dns service records make it easy
then with forward/reverse.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I signed up for a $5 VPS at Digital Ocean last night. Today I
am ssh'ing in and it take about 10 seconds for the response
asking me for my passwd. I'm using ssh from the command line
on my linux workstation.<br>
<br>
I work on several other hardware servers and the respons is
almost instantanious. Is the slow response an indication the
vps is going to be slow? Or maybe it is something I am doing
- I'm using the VPS' IP instead of the hostname.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your feedback!!<br>
