[gentoo-user] startup woes with sshd, rsyncd, nfs, portmap

[John Blinka]

Hi, All,

After a long period of not updating one of my machines, I recently did a
fairly large emerge -DuNv world.  And now things don't work quite as they
used to.

Symptoms:

   sshd doesn't start
   nfs doesn't start
   rsyncd doesn't start

   system sometimes hangs on shutdown when it tries to unmount
   remote filesystems.

   There are no complaints in /var/log/messages.

   I can start all of these daemons by hand without a problem and all
   are in the default rc level.  Starting nfs is a bit different from
starting
   the others: I have to start portmap first

Any ideas on where to look for problems?
