Thanks for the partial include - I have a feeling that it a *pretty large*
file :-)
If you have a look at the startup script, you will see that it is a symlink
to /etc/init.d/xinetd ?
Anyway:
[2]wyvern:~$ dpkg -S rpc.portmap
dpkg: *rpc.portmap* not found.
You have mail in /var/spool/mail/bridgett

[2]wyvern:~$ dpkg -S portmap
netbase: /usr/sbin/portmap
netbase: /usr/man/man8/portmap.8.gz
netbase: /usr/doc/netbase/portmapper.txt.gz
So it looks like it has changed it's name to portmap. Is this the latest
xinetd package you have - if so then it looks like a bug report may be needed!
