Hello all,

I've been trying to figure out why fam "can't register with portmapper"
for a couple of weeks now and I'm completely stumped.  I've searched the
list archives, google, and the fam web site to no avail.  The fam manpage
is absolutely no help whatsoever, either.  So, here's the situation:
Portmap starts on boot up and then the fam.sh script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
starts fam after portmap.  Fam runs for a little while and then I get the
dreaded, "Cannot register service: RPC: Timed out...fam can't register
with portmapper," message.  Apparently, I'm the only one having this
problem which means I'm probably overlooking some miniscule detail
somewhere that the docs aren't mentioning.  I need to get this working so
that I can *finally* use KDE 2.2.1.  Any help with be *immensely*
appreciated.  Please cc me in the reply as I'm not currently subbed to
this list.

Thanks in Advance, 
Scott
