turning off rpc entirely
 
I'm using Debian (squeeze) and noticed that rpc portmapper is enabled. How do I turn this off?

I just turned off portmap and it stopped rpc services from showing up when rpcinfo -p is run. Still don't know how it got turned on.

One approach:
Code:
# update-rc.d portmap disable

# service portmap stop
