A stupid but non FAQ question:
Where are rpc.portmap, rpc.mountd, rpc.nfsd for NFS mounting? I am sure these
are not included in the slackware distribution. Any help, flame will be well
accepted.

Hmmm......
From rstat(1):
rstat: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out
The remote host is not running the portmapper (see
portmap(8c)), and cannot accomodate any RPC-based
services. The host may be down.
SEE ALSO
portmap(8c), rstat_svc(8c)

On Slackware 1.2:
# which rpc.portmap or # find / -name rpc.portmap -print
/usr/sbin/rpc.portmap /usr/sbin/rpc.portmap
/cdrom/usr/sbin/rpc.portmap

1. How to use rpc.portmap, rpc.mountd, rpc.nfsd?
[Q2] Stupid but non-FAQ NFS question #2:
Thanks for the help of finding out the rpc.portmap, rpc.mountd, rcp.nfsd.
Still, after reading the NFS-FAQ, Linux Network Admin Guide, none of these guys
seem to work at all. I still get the message of RPC fault: program is not
registered. I guess I really need a cookbook example.
Let's say I have machines A and B which both of them can telnet and ftp to each
other. In other words, they are properly connected. Now, this is how I did.
I add three statements at the begninning of the rc.inet2 at machine A:
/usr/sbin/rpc.portmap
/usr/sbin/rpc.mountd
/usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd
/bin/mount -t nfs B:/home /mnt
Then, I add /mnt B[rw] at /etc/exports at machine A.
Then, reboot machine A, and it prompts RPC fault: program is not registered.
Can anyone provide me an idiot-proof way of attacking this? Thanks.
BTW, someone mention "premeter". What is that?
