Package: rpcbind

Version: 1.2.5-9


The only time rpcbind is brought up is at system start.

RUNLEVEL 1 kills it.



So either rpcbind shouldn't be killed at runlevel 1 or it should be

made sure to be running prior to nfs-kernel-server on runlevels 2-5.

$sudo su

# init 1

.

.

#init 5

# /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart

System response:

Stopping NFS kernel daemon: mountd nfsd.
Unexporting directories for NFS kernel daemon....
Exporting directories for NFS kernel daemon....
Starting NFS kernel daemon: nfsd
Not starting: portmapper is not running ... (warning).


#/etc/init.d/rpcbind restart

System response:

Stopping RPC port mapper daemon: rpcbind.
Starting RPC port mapper daemon: rpcbind.


#/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart

System response:

Stopping NFS kernel daemon: mountd nfsd.
Unexporting directories for NFS kernel daemon....
Exporting directories for NFS kernel daemon....
Starting NFS kernel daemon: nfsd mountd.


Investigation:

/etc$sudo find . -name *nfs-kernel-server
./rc2.d/S04nfs-kernel-server
./rc0.d/K01nfs-kernel-server
./rc1.d/K01nfs-kernel-server
./default/nfs-kernel-server
./init.d/nfs-kernel-server
./rc3.d/S04nfs-kernel-server
./rc4.d/S04nfs-kernel-server
./rc6.d/K01nfs-kernel-server
./rc5.d/S04nfs-kernel-server


/etc$ sudo find . -name *rpcbind
./rc0.d/K06rpcbind
./rc1.d/K06rpcbind
./rcS.d/S17rpcbind
./default/rpcbind
./init.d/rpcbind
./rc6.d/K06rpcbind
./insserv.conf.d/rpcbind


The fix would appear to be obvious and trivial.

Modify the installation script to set the rc scripts correctly.
