I bet it's saying *portmapper* failure ... but anyway, is your
`portmap' starting correctly? After system starts up, log in, and run
ps aux | grep '[p]ortmap'
If nothing shows up, then the portmapper isn't starting. Check to
make sure /usr/sbin/portmap exists.
If it does show up, then run
rpcinfo -p
and see if you get a list of registered clients. If you get an error,
you might not have a loopback route. In that case, make sure
/etc/sysconfig has
network_interfaces="lo0 ..."
static_routes="loopback"
Other entries may appear in these two entries. Just make sure ``lo0''
is network_interfaces and ``loopback'' is in static_routes. Also, you
need
ifconfig_lo0="inet localhost"
and
route_loopback="${hostname} localhost"
