rpcbind not working correctly has consequences:

rpcinfo: can't contact rpcbind: RPC: Remote system error - Connection refused

Comment 4 Cristian Iorga 2014-01-24 15:47:04 UTC 
Something doesn't quite work:

root@qemux86:/etc# /etc/init.d/rpcbind status
/usr/sbin/rpcbind is stopped
root@qemux86:/etc# /etc/init.d/rpcbind start
Starting rpcbind daemon...done.
root@qemux86:/etc# /etc/init.d/rpcbind status
