I am not running nfs on my box which is debian. Hence I'm not running portmapper. However, when I boot, I see this in the dmesg:
RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).
portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out
RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).
lockd_up: makesock failed, error=-5
portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out
RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).
How can I figure out what's trying to use portmap and failing during boot and stop it?
