[NBLUG/talk] Debian and Portmap

[Steve]

I don't really have a need for portmap to be running on my
system but for some odd reason it loads up on boot up (New
debian install). in my inittab I am setup for run level 3 as my default
(Why does Debian default to runlevel 2?) and in my
/etc/rc3.d directory I taylord it to only run the stuff I want it to run.

Here is what I have

goblin:/etc/rc3.d# ls -l S*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           18 Jun 25 12:10 S10sysklogd ->
../init.d/sysklogd
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           15 Jun 25 12:10 S11klogd
-> ../init.d/klogd
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           14 Jun 25 12:10 S20exim ->
../init.d/exim
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           17 Jun 25 12:09 S20makedev
-> ../init.d/makedev
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 Jun 25 19:25 S20ssh
-> ../init.d/ssh
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 Jun 25 12:10 S89atd
-> ../init.d/atd
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           14 Jun 25 12:10 S89cron ->
../init.d/cron
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           19 Jun 25 12:09 S99rmnologin
-> ../init.d/rmnologin


Ok so where is portmap getting started?  I don't trust portmap =)

goblin:/etc/rc3.d# grep portmap *
goblin:/etc/rc3.d# 

goblin:/etc/rc3.d# grep rpc *
goblin:/etc/rc3.d# 

Yet it starts on every re-boot.  any help would be appreciated.
