piranha...
btw....
113 is used as transit port for most authentication schemes
i like to place it right after established traffic to speed up
login procs....
111 - sunrpc
The original idea of the portmapper was something like inetd,
only for RPC (remote procedure call); to save on overhead, process slots,
and cpu cycles, RPC services would be invoked out of portmap instead of as
daemon processes - same idea, though. A connection to some RPC port comes
in, and portmap passes off the data to the appropriate service. RPC is what
Sun used to drive NFS/NIS... it is notoriously insecure. but its kinda
ingrained for example dtlogin just croaks without port 111 open....
