inetd will wait for a very long time if there is no portmapper and you try to start an RPC service (duh). While it's waiting, it won't service any other requests, which will cause mysterious non-RPC service failures, made more mysterious by them suddenly working a bit after a reboot. Perhaps it would be helpful to add inetd to the list of dependencies for portmap in /etc/rc in a future release? Or perhaps not... sdb -- sdb@ssr.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
