slink right? I commented out the lines that start it in /etc/init.d/netbase. I think that's as close as you're going to get as a "best way" to do it, because it unfortunately is crammed in there with the rest of the stuff. > Also, why is portmap included in the netbase package anyway? I'm not sure. There was probably a reason for it I guess. It's been split up in potato, it now has its own script which makes it cleaner to deal with.
