actually...my apologies to all! the issue has been resolved.
somehow, the 'portmap_program' item in /etc/defaults/rc.conf for this
system was removed! thus, portmap was not running, and rpc.statd could not
register.
*sigh*
my apologies for the wasted time/effort/bandwidth...though this has
spawned some interesting, if questionable discussioins about virtual
hosting.
cheers,
jeff
