The password prompt takes a long time to come up... any ideas what would cause that? I don't have any issues getting to it quickly from other machines.

It's trying to figure out where you are coming from, name wise, and then timing out as it wanders the DNS tree. I'm pretty sure the is a config option to ignore it, but the easy way out is the put the IP you are coming from into the /etc/hosts
