This has been a problem with portmap for as long as I can remember (back to the SunOS 3.5 days) and if you have finally fixed it WONDERFULL!!! I hope you have commited it, or well soon, to -stable, as this one has surely been one to send many a young admin screaming from his cubicle yelling ``but it should work, it really should just work''. > Question: Does the rpcbind program in -current have the same problem > or has it already been fixed by whomever you imported the code from? > (If it hasn't been fixed I'll be happy to fix it.

Given the length of time that this problem has existed some how I doubt it... -- Rod Grimes - KD7CAX @ CN85sl - (RWG25) rgrimes@gndrsh.dnsmgr.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
