I've been running YDL on a powerbook connected to a Linksys LAN for
years, no problem.&nbsp; But when connected to a different LAN, with a newer
router&nbsp; using mac addresses for security, most programs startups are
delayed by ten seconds when ethernet is up.&nbsp; Haven't isolated which
system calls those delayed programs make.&nbsp; So far I've identified those
programs as either Gnome-based or network-oriented.&nbsp; (I need ncftp to
be very responsive for my work - can't handle a ten second delay) Only
a few basic programs like cp are not delayed.&nbsp; I'd guess Gnome
calculator is hanging on Gnome init which probably looks briefly at the
network even though the calculator doesn't use it.&nbsp; Any pointers on
program startup delays when connected to network? <br>
