Hi,
This is just a question about the length of time it takes to log in as root on some servers. Basically some of our servers run kerberos authentication while others do local, however in all cases the root password is in the shadow's file. The problem I have is that on some servers it takes a very log time to log into the root account. After typing the root password it takes more than 30 seconds before it eventually logs in. However, when I scp or ssh to the server as root it logs in fine and instantly.
I'd appreciate any help if possible.
