Package: firehol
Version: 1.256-4
Severity: important

When using firehol with NFS related services there is a problem when booting
the machine. I get errors like this:

--- cut here ---
WHAT:    Getting RPC information from server 'localhost'
WHY:     Cannot get rpcinfo from host 'localhost' (using previous firewall 
rules)
COMMAND: server nfs\ portmap accept src <MY_NFS_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS>
SOURCE:  line INIT of /etc/firehol/firehol.conf
--- cut here ---

It seems that this is a problem with the startup order. firehol is started
before portmap:

$ ls -al /etc/rcS.d/S*
...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Jul  6 11:34 S40networking -> ../init.d/networking
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jul  6 13:46 S41firehol -> ../init.d/firehol
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jul  6 15:01 S43portmap -> ../init.d/portmap
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Jul  6 15:01 S44nfs-common -> ../init.d/nfs-common
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Jul  6 11:34 S45mountnfs.sh -> ../init.d/mountnfs.sh
...

But starting firehol later (I tried S60firehol) won't work, too, with the same
error message. I got no error when starting at /etc/rc2.d/S41firehol.

The same error occurs on lenny-i386. Is this a general problem?

Thanks, Holger
