Subject:   Portmapper not servicing broadcasts
Message-ID:  <ECS9706251039A@NetworX.ie>

Hi all,

A machine on my network is generating a limited broadcast
to the portmapper, looking for available NFS servers.

My FBSD 2.0 box doesn't reply.  It generates an entry in
the log which reads

--------
Jun 25 09:59:24 sam portmap[28467]: connect from 194.9.12.33
	to callit(nfs): request not forwarded
--------

Can anybody explain why it's not responding to the request
and how I can make it respond.
Other Unix and NT boxes on the network do respond.


Bye,
Mike
