[SunHELP] rpcbind

[Bob C. Ruddy]

on a solaris 7 box when attempting to start rpcbind with "/etc/init.d/rpc
start" I am getting the following error messages in /var/adm/messages

rpcbind: udp: cannot open connection: System error
rpcbind: tcp: cannot open connection: System error

I have confirmed before attempting to start bind that nothing is listening
on port 111 either tcp or udp. I also checked afterwards to make sure it
did not start up. Has anyone seen this before?
