I should have been more clear about rpcinfo --- rpcinfo -p client from the client fails rpcinfo -p client from the server works but shows only portmapper and nlockmgr
rpcinfo -p server from the client works rpcinfo -p server from the server works Again, the error is when I try to run ypbind on the client: Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to send; errno = Operation not permitted Unable to register (YPBINDPROG, YPBINDVERS, udp). The is no firewall in the system. I rebuilt the kernel without freeswan, but no change. I've been exploring some ipv6 functionality. I wonder if that introduced some problem with portmap. Thanks for your thoughts.
