are you running ftpd under tcp wrappers? your inetd.conf will be something
like
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd wu.ftpd
if so, you are having troubles with identd (lookup the HOWTO).
change the line to
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/wu.ftpd wu.ftpd
Alternatively you can tweak your hosts.allow, and you hosts file to allow
access.
make sure that the relevant machines in the cluster have local IP entries
in you /etc/hosts file, and are allowed in /etc/hosts.allow
The problem that I had was the inability to resolve host names for machines
within a NAT cluster because of their local only IP address. The minute
timeout is a "typical" name lookup timeout.
I don't know if this is entirely relevant.... I lost the previous setup
description e-mails. But I do know that disabling tcp wrappers is not
necessarily the right solution as it will disable logging and allowed IP
security checks. I have a NAT cluster running FTP and telnet and ssh, all
tcp wrappered with no access delays / problems.
