how to disable rpc

[Quek Shu Wen]

Due to some security, i need to disable the rpc. however i comment (#) all rpc related in the /etc/inetd.conf. did a restart on the inetd and even reboot. but once i rpcinfo -p it is still not disable .

Could someone guide me?
Thanks.

Shalom,

RPC is part of NFS.

There are three daemons involved here but turning them all off is likely to cause problems.

nfs.core
nfs.server
nfs.client

/etc/rec.config.d/namesvr
Control file for which services activate at boot.

automounter and autofs require these services.
