I figured out what *I* did wrong. Turns out I had disabled one of the three
network interfaces on this machine via ifconfig a day or so ago. A network
problem was causing that interface not to work, so I had to route around
the problem. It seems that the rpc-based services all got confused when I
did that. I finally wound up turning off NIS, rpc.statd, NSR, and then
portmap itself. A restart of portmap, NIS, rpc.statd, rpc.lockd, and
NSR worked. Now rpc.lockd stays up.
Oh well -- live and learn!
