You could still be having DNS issues...especially if you are using
ident. Check the xinetd.d POP startup stuff (typically
/etc/xinetd.d/ipop3) and see if you have something like
log_on_* += HOST
If so, delete the HOST bit or comment out the line(s). That causes a
reverse DNS lookup to be done for the client so the client FQDN can
be logged.
I changed it to below, and it seems faster.
service pop3
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/ipop3d
# log_on_success += HOST DURATION
logon_success += DURATION
That should read "log_on_success += DURATION". "logon_success" is not
a recognized option.
log_on_failure += HOST
}
Unless you implement reverse DNS, use reverse DNS, or put all of the
possible reverse lookups in your /etc/hosts file, then I'd remove all
references to the "HOST" parameter since any reverse DNS lookup will
fail and have to time out. Also check the other files in /etc/xinetd.d
to see if there are any other references to the HOST parameter (such
as in "imap").
