I had to try a number of different things to get it going. It took several hours. I don't entirely understand the way the host gets its IP address. The kernel ipaddr=x.x.x.x option doesn't seem to work, it always uses dhcp. I ended up using a dhcp server with a static IP for the host, and also configuring the same static IP in /etc/network/interfaces. The other thing I can think of is that I bound portmap to localhost, by uncommenting the OPTIONS line in /etc/default/portmap. I'm not sure whether any of this is necessary. I wasted so much time on this I didn't really feel like spending any more time figuring out what the exact bug is, especially since there seem to be multiple bugs.
