NFS/RPC question

[Marcelo Camperi <marcelo berceuse physics usfca edu>]

Hi,

I have a group of Pentium IIIs running RH 6.0, and I am having problems
mounting NFS volumes.

Essentially, the problem is that the mounting fails because of a
TCPwrappers issue (if fails with "RPC:program not registered" message).
I know it is TCPwrappers because if I comment out the ALL:ALL line in
hosts.deny, everything works fine.

Now, simply having the line 

ALL: client.address

in hosts.allow does not do it. I need a line in it specific for the
portmap services to be allowed. Simply writing 

portmap: client.address

does not seem to work either, nor

rpc.nfsd: client.address
rpc.portmap: client.address

would work.

Would anyone know what that line should be?

Thank you very much,

Marcelo
