The message about the "unauthorized host" indicates that the request was
successfully blocked.

However, from further reading, having portmapper running on a machine
connected to the net is not a Good Thing.  The recommendation I read was
that 1) if you're not using NFS turn it off, and 2) if you need to be
running portmapper, put the machine behind a firewall.  Another suggestion
was to simply use ipchains to DENY requests to port 111.
