Well, at least knowingly I don't use any RPC services. :-) And this is
what 'rpcinfo -p' gives me:
rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Remote system error \
- Connection refused
(I split it in two lines)
The same answer as a luser and as a root. What should I deduct from
this? It's just so weird as I'm not running NFS, NIS or any other
thingie that should use this port...
