I'm in the same boat as you. I've partially solved the problem by
making up a name for the machine and adding it to my /etc/hosts file.
It now looks like this:
127.0.0.0 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.77.21 fakenamehere
Proftp now works,(I couldn't connect at all before) but connect times
are still very long. Also, sendmail is taking extreme amounts of time
to start up.
I think we're missing something simple but critical here...
