I've a problem where reverse DNS is being done by the NFS server. This is very problematic when the DNS server goes away. As far as I can see there should be no lookups being performed because I've nothing in /etc/hosts.{allow,deny} and just numeric hosts in /etc/exports.
rpc.statd performs reverse DNS lookups to verify the hostname of the remote that is about to be monitored.... perhaps that is one place to start looking.
