I was able to reproduce this (or atleast a problem) on Solaris 2.4. It
certainly makes things go strange while it's running (for the NFS
clients) since the wrong program is swallowing the packets. (Guess I
shouldn't have ran it on my NFS server. *grin*)

Note: I was not able to reproduce it with the NSkit 1.0 yppasswdd though.
I didn't try any other ports.
