Do you have NIS on your machine?

 I have a similar problem under Linux Fedora Core -- when 
/etc/nsswitch.conf file has "files ldap" specifications for "passwd" and 
"group", not just "files", and computer lose network, the start is too slow.
 IMHO, not "ldap" affected only -- any network-related stuff ("files 
nisplus" should be affected too).

 Hint: the problem is inspired by `getgroups()' (or something like 
that) call...
