It's the same as two other Gentoo boxes I run, both of which start up normally, and it's the same as it was before the problems started, so I agree: rc-update is not the source of the problem, I'm getting out of ideas, but there's one thing left: /etc/conf.d/rc Check if using other values for RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING, RC_PARALLEL_STARTUP and maybe (if currently set) RC_PLUG_SERVICES have any consequences.

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