Hi,

I have on many occasions run into the situation where the RPC based services have occupied the well-known ports for other non-RPC based services. Last week rpc.lockd on one of my systems got hold of TCP port 995, leaving inetd unable to start any pop3s services.

Another fix for this is to add flags to the daemons themselves to allow the RPC services to be bound by port number. I added this to mountd so that I could bind its port on startup for running mountd on a DMZ host, thus enabling mountd access to be filtered in the firewall.

Regards,
BMS
