Most likely when you login your system is not able to reverse-lookup your IP address... When you login type:
who am i
You will likely see an ip address in the last field...
Try to nslookup on this last field:
nslookup ip.ip.ip.ip
----
While you are at it, answer the following questions:
Do you have a DNS server?
How is your nsswitch.conf file setup? (It's in /etc/nsswitch.conf if you are curious.).. Can you cut-and-paste this file into your reply?..
---
Once you have done what I have suggested and provided the information I have request I can give you a solution to your problem..
