Umm, I thouth woody gnome wouldn't depend on fam, no?

Yeah, it's strange. Even stranger, that nautilus won't start at all, if
the connection to port 111 fails!!

Have you tried "rpcinfo -p localhost" to see if Nautilus is
registering a connection to portmap? The newer Gnome installs
(gnomevfs) depend on fam, which depends on portmap. I don't
believe there is a direct dependency from core Nautilus to
portmap, but possibly some of the Nautilus extras or vfs extrase
are causing the dependency.

Have you tried "rpcinfo -p localhost" to see if Nautilus is
registering a connection to portmap? The newer Gnome installs
(gnomevfs) depend on fam, which depends on portmap. I don't
believe there is a direct dependency from core Nautilus to
portmap, but possibly some of the Nautilus extras or vfs extrase

No matter if I try netstat -apn or netstat -atunp as someone pointed out
in private, it gives the same result as netstat -tu -l -ee -p, apart
from the established connections, namely there is nothing listening in
port 111.

Furhtermore, package "portmap" is NOT installed, but there are working
connections via 111 when nautilus starts up..

I usually use a netstat -apn (requires r00t).  It will show you all
sockets (listening or otherwise) and what app owns them.  The -n makes
it so it does not resolve the port numbers via /etc/service.

I usually use a netstat -apn (requires r00t).  It will show you all
sockets (listening or otherwise) and what app owns them.  The -n makes
it so it does not resolve the port numbers via /etc/service.
