Telnet Slooooow

Admins,
        I recently receive a new AIX Server in and the telnet connections
are extremely slow. From the console I can telnet to localhost with no
delay but all incoming telnet connections are extremely slow. after telnet
connects it takes a good minute for the login prompt. so I initially
thought that this was a Reverse DNS issue but after I am finally able to
log in every command I type takes abut 60 seconds to echo to the screen
and continue Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

O and the hosts that I am telnet from are in the /etc/hosts file and
nslookup/DNS seems fine.

Thank in advance,
David Knight

You can also use the mtools that comes with AIX 5. With mtools, you
have commands available that emulate old dos commands:

mdir
mformat
mcopy
mmove
mmd
mattrib

All you do is reference the floppy drive like a dos drive letter, ie
"mcopy file.txt a:" or "mdir a:".
