i'm trying to solve the problem of which port need to open on the pf. the 
variant of processing rpcinfo output with script and then putting a rules into 
an anchor is not very pretty. especially considering that this is not enough, 
and i still need to repeat this action by cron. this variant works, but it's 
not even close to how it should work %\ why i should solve such the task at a 
time when humanity is flying to conquer Mars?
