Hi Thomas,
******Begin Non-Authoritative answer******
Someone ran rpcinfo -p against your host. They were trying to
determine what rpc processes you were running. This is a standard
scan tactic prior to an intrusion attempt. The rpc's have
many known vulnerabilities.
******End Non-Authoritative answer******
It means beware... Someone is looking for a way in.
Have fun,
