CFMX7 Takes 10 minutes to start

Okay, heres the deal, I have three identical servers running red hat enterprise linux 4 update 4 (well, actually CENTOS 4.4, but close enough) Coldfusion MX 7.0.2 and apache 2.0.52.

For the longest time I thought CF was completely broken, but actually it just takes forever to start up. I always have to manually kill CF because the stop script just hangs and fills the screen with dots. Then I have to start CF server. Then I need to restart httpd. At this point ill get an error 500 screen for approximately ten minutes before admin will finally connect.

The pertinent snippet from the cfserver.log file is as follows:

03/06 13:37:21 Error [main] - Unable to initialize FlexAssembler service: coldfusion.flex.FlexAssemblerService$UnableToRegisterServe
rExcepton: Unable to register Flex Assembler Service in RMI registry: java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 10.10.1
0.207; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out.
03/06 13:37:21 Information [main] - ColdFusion started

03/06 13:37:21 user CFCServlet: init
03/06 13:37:21 user FlashGateway: init
03/06 13:37:21 user CFFormGateway: init
03/06 13:37:21 user CFInternalServlet: init
Server coldfusion ready (startup time: 578 seconds)

Any Ideas?? Thanks so much!

    Nevermind...

    Apparently I had overwritten the updated /etc/hosts file with an older one with old IP addressing in it.

    Anyone experiencing slowdowns or non-responsive control scripts, check your /etc/hosts file to see if teh servers host name maps to a bad IP.
