Mozilla, KGhostView, & sunrpc?



Hello, All:

While using Mozilla 1.0 I've noticed that when I click on a link to a .pdf file KGhostView takes quite a while to open. While waiting, I ran `netstat -ta` and noticed that...

1. There's a connection between sunrpc and a random port for each .pdf that I've clicked on. 2. KGhostView doesn't open until the port times-out. (I've set the iptables rules to only allow HTTP, SSH,
  and DNS traffic in/out AND I've turned-off portmap).

What are these connections? Will KGhostView start more quickly if I enable portmap?
