Description of problem: $ rpcinfo -p chemserv rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Unknown host RPC services don't work at all anymore. If I remove ipv4 from /etc/netconfig, everything starts working again. I have attached strace from rpcinfo -p <servername> which always returns unknown host if ipv6 appears in /etc/netconfig. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 8 RPC How reproducible: Update to latest Fedora 8 (and 7 seems to be affected as well)

Created attachment 280071 [details] ipv6 removed - everything works again
OK - this was not as bad as I thought first. The services seem to work. Just rpcinfo doesn't.
