a buncha different scripts seem to call it, to fully disable it i usually rename /sbin/portmap to /sbin/portmap.old or something. that insures that no script will ever call it, even when i install new software. the main default scripts that will call it are the nfs scripts(require portmap), inetd, xinetd and portmap. nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
