I brought the remote machine back up, but now mountd won't run. I get this message from portmap: portmap[262]: connect from 127.0.0.1 to unset(mountd): request from a non-local host Can anybody clarify what is going on? Shouldn't portmap recognize localhost for what it is? The remote machine only has a small drive, and /usr/local, X, and other stuff are all mounted from other machines. I do not have the source on this machine, so I cannot rebuild it locally.
