You might have the same problem another poster had. Edit the /etc/init.d/xinetd file and change rpc.portmap to portmap and restart xinetd. I noticed I couldn't ftp when xinetd isn't running also. I was too lazy to look into exactly which service in xinetd was causing it. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
