Hi !

A few weeks ago, I've upgraded an old Woody NFS server to Sarge, and
portmapper problems started: sometimes 'rpcinfo -p' is stuck as portmap
waits for the recvmsg() call to return.

Here's my very sub-optimal workaround: adding the following line to /etc/crontab to send UDP packets to portmap.

 *  *    * * *   nobody  rpcinfo -u localhost 100003 >/dev/null

IMHO, I think that the bug is in the glibc, since portmap uses the glibc
rpc functions to receive packets.

Cheers,

  Ludovic.
