Well, it isn't really a mystery as such -- the main problem is that portmap is very fond of assigning random port numbers to stuff, even if those port numbers are reserved for something else. (I'm not sure if nlockmgr actually uses portmap, but I wouldn't be surprised.) > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc[948] r rpc > rpcinfo -p > program vers proto port > 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper > 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper > 100021 1 udp 1024 nlockmgr > 100021 3 udp 1024 nlockmgr > 100021 4 udp 1024 nlockmgr > 100021 1 tcp 4369 nlockmgr > 100021 3 tcp 4369 nlockmgr > 100021 4 tcp 4369 nlockmgr Ah, I see what's happening; you probably have at least one NFS mount on the machine (ie. it's a client, not just a server). Is that correct, and if so: at what point is it mounted? /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
