SUMMARY: "rpcb_set: not started" daemon errors in /var/adm/messages

Hi all,

Thanks to Casper Dik who point out the obvious to me.

I had compared this server to another and with the same configuration and had not noticed any differences.

The one file I didn't check was /etc/inetd.conf.

RPC services are not meant to be running and after taking out the rpc entries in /etc/inetd.conf all is OK.

Thanks for the quick response.

======= Original Posting ==========
Hi all,

I wonder could anyone throw some light on the following : 

A few days ago a server was rebooted and it was noticed that in the
messages file were a series of rpc not started messages.

I did have a look through the archives and found a similiar posting
where the solution was to start up the inet daemon in trace mode by
editing the file /etc/init.d/inetsvc and adding -t to the start up of
the inetd daemon, i.e. changing the line to : 

/usr/sbin/inetd -t -s &

Did this and restarted the services and I still got the same messages.

Can anyone come up with an alternate reason as to why this message is
occuring.  If you need more info, please let me know.

Below are the relevant lines in the messages file.
