 Ok, and a warning on all RPC programs not using a static port number?

 The only one I use right now is nfs-common, and I see following
 packages depending on portmap:
    rwalld
    am-utils
    nfs-common
    bootparamd
    nfs-user-server
    drac
    nis
    rusersd
    rstatd
    fam
    ugidd
