Be sure the portmapper is running. I'm not sure of where this problem was
introduced, but apparently one of the RPMs from the errata was incorrect.
You can use the `tksysv' program to make sure portmap is running in runlevel 3,
or you can do:
# cd /etc/rc3.d
# ls -la *portmap*
If the ls produces nothing, then type the following:
# ln -s ../init.d/portmap S40portmap
