A script to workaround slow ssh connection issues
Authored by: linuxdude on Dec 28, '07 10:23:31AM

I've experienced a similar problem on Linux systems. I believe that some versions of ssh by default try to resolve a hostnames using IPv6 first, then IPv4. The fix was to use the ssh -4 option. To make that happen every time, create an alias for ssh and define it to be "ssh -4".
