Due to some t-storms my internet is up and down like nuts today but
the upshot is it seems that even local ssh requires a reverse DNS
lookup and thus has a very long hang before connecting.   How can I
prevent this behaviour

Additional question: what additional steps do I need to make the
system completely separable from the internet (I already ran into
reverse DNS issues with showmount).   (I use NFS but not NIS for most
stuff)
