This is a bit thin on details, so just guessing from my side. RPC
traditionally uses a moving port, assigned by the port mapper.

You can configure it to behave as you want it to (RPC and naive,
port based firewall rules have always been a bit at odds with each
other.).

Perhaps you are seeing that? 

What on earth is "unhide-tcp"?
