Thanks for the reply, Bill.<br>
It turns out to be a couple of network-related config issues that
cropped up only after switching LANs.<br>
<br>
The startup delay in most application programs when network is up was
due to my /etc/hosts file being empty.<br>
The fix was to add a line: 127.0.0.1 localhost 'hostname'<br>
Where 'hostname' is the name given to the hostname program, minus the
quotes.<br>
<br>
A related issue was a fifteen second delay in starting ssh that cropped
up also when I switched LANs.<br>
The problem is seen with ssh -vvv; The solution here was to use ssh -o
GSSAPIAuthentication=no<br>
