The man page implies that > "-h 127.0.0.1" should do it, but that doesn't work. I imagine this doesn't work because for localhost, rpcbind listens on AF_LOCAL socket /var/run/rpcbind.sock. This allows authentication of the registrand. Normally this interface isn't exposed directly to applications: they use the APIs in libtirpc (or glibc) to access the local rpcbind service. -- Chuck Lever chuck[dot]lever[at]oracle[dot]com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
