Do you want pormapper or rpcbind?  The newer rpcbind actually allows RPC services to register at specific addresses, but the legacy portmapper does not.

mount.nfs is in nfs-utils.

I don't understand.  portmapper, as an RPC service, receives incoming requests.  But we don't use the rpcbind CALLIT procedure on Linux, thus it doesn't make outbound requests.
