I agree it doesn't seem to be a mysql issue.  I included the info about 
mysql connections taking a long time to illustrate that it doesn't seem 
to be an ssh issue.  :-)

On all three of the affected systems, I can ping outside addresses by 
name, (www.yahoo.com), but not internal machines by name.  However, I 
can ping internal machines by ip address.
