This was the case using RedHat with several different kernels > 2.4.18 and patch-o-matic-20030107 (I believe). I thought I would give patch-o-matic-20031219 a try on SUSE with kernel 2.4.25 from kernel.org patched with StrongSWAN 2.0.1 (FreeS/WAN successor) to see if it behaved any better. Alas, the same problem. We have neither the skills nor time to contribute code to this patch but it is important for us especially for our support of Microsoft shops with their pervasive use of services spawned off of the port mapper on 135/tcp. If there is anything we can do to help outside of development such as testing, please let us know - John -- John A.
