Hello people,
I just upgraded my system to woody, and everything seems to
run fine exept I can't get fam (file alteration manager) to
work now.
I get the following error:
"Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to receive; errno =
Connection refused fam[10940]: can't register with
portmapper."
I bet your problem is that one of that package that you installed
killed your /etc/inetd.conf file. At least that's what happened to me
last week. I never did figure out who did it. Check to see if it's
there.

Portmapper is usefull (and not essential) only for rpc apps. Ftp and
telnet are not rpc programs and do not interact with portmapper.
Check your ip connectivety, can you ping the other site? If no, check
the network interface and route tables for both machines, then inspect
the cable, io car
i am replying to my own message but i finally found out what the
problem is. /etc/inetd.conf got wiped out, probably because of the
upgrade to either netbase 2.11 or 2.12. i'll check to see which one is
the culprit and i will file it as a bug against it (2.12 that is, 2.11
seems to have been obsole
i just realized that i cannot telnet/ftp into my machine although i
can go out with no problems. i've checked to make sure the portmapper
and inetd are running (they are). at the time i realized this is
happening i was running netbase 2.12-1 but in the mean time i
downgraded to 2.10-1 hoping this w
6 matches
