Here's what rpcinfo says: [okocim]13:55:34[/etc]$ rpcinfo gw.krzys.com rpcinfo: can't contact rpcbind: : RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused; System error What's statd? I'm now doing the following on my firewall: /sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY /sbin/ipchains -A forward -i eth0 -s 10.0.0.0/24 -j MASQ /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -f /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 24.115.135.172 2222 -R 10.0.0.3 2222 /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 24.115.135.172 2049 -R 10.0.0.3 2049 /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 24.115.135.172 111 -R 10.0.0.3 111 The last three correspond to sshd, nfs, and sunrpc, but I have no idea what I'm doing (sshd works, nfs doesn't). > Remember with nfs: > > Anyone can act as any of your users!
