I've just seen the same here.  sunrpc isn't installed.  I have the latest
setup.exe 2.416.

Now I've tried to run the thing on W98 without any success.  I just
want it to play with it, so I am not concerned with any security or stuff.
Just a mount from a VMS box should work.  But doesn't.  I start all
manually.  First portmapper, then mountd, then nfsd.  A netstat -a doesn't
show any listeners on nfsd, only portmap.  telnet localhost nfsd gives
connection refused.  What am I doing wrong?  Just W98?  Or would fixing
something in /etc/services help?  nfs-server-config didn't work at all
since cygrunsrv says it cannot run in DOS mode.  I am doing this from
a rxvt window with tcsh.

Thanks,
Michael
