Xshell taking long time [3]

Hi Guys,

Facing a strange issue:

While ssh'ing a server (HP Ux Itanium) through putty, it works perfectly ok. But if connecting through XShell (using ssh) it takes 4-5 minutes. Traced user authentication process in XShell and following is the output.

In Putty it takes only a few seconds.

Any clues what could be wrong ?

Thanks

I'm having the same problem on 2017! It takes almost 1 minute.
Disconnect-Reconnect also takes forever.

Putty connects in 1 second.

Can you provide more details on your issue? Context would be very helpful. Screenshots would be appreciated as well.
