To check if portmap is running, you can check for the process: zebra $ ps -ef | grep portmap rpc 738 1 0 Oct16 ? 00:00:00 portmap zebra $ Assuming portmap is running, check that rpc works: zebra $ /usr/sbin/rpcinfo -p localhost program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 rpcbind 100000 2 udp 111 rpcbind 100024 1 udp 32768 status 100024 1 tcp 32768 status 100007 2 udp 657 ypbind 100007 1 udp 657 ypbind 100007 2 tcp 660 ypbind 100007 1 tcp 660 ypbind 391002 2 tcp 32769 sgi_fam 300019 1 tcp 764 amd 300019 1 udp 765 amd 100021 1 udp 32770 nlockmgr 100021 3 udp 32770 nlockmgr 100021 4 udp 32770 nlockmgr zebra $ If that is working, then NFS should start up ok. You need to have the portmapper working before you try NFS. "man portmapper" might be a good place to start - if you are having problems, you probably want to look at using -v to see what's going on.
