Can't register program on IBM AIX 5.1

[derekhsu]

Hello,

I am trying write a ONCRPC program on IBM AIX 5.1. First, I tested it on my windows 7 desktop and worked, but when I run it on IBM AIX 5.1, the program can't be registered to portmap service. The log listed below:

Can you provide any suggestion?
Thank you.

Hi,

could you check that rpcbind/portmap on AIX allowes updates from non privilaged ports. On linux this is enabled with '-i' option to rpcbind.

It seems we have similar problem on AIX: service is binded to a port (logs says successfully) but rpcinfo doesn't list it...

Do we have any update on this issue? Is it an OS related issue?
