Ok, once again. In the above listing that service _is_ there. It is the
portmapper port. However, I think that we should not do just one or the other,
but rather both. Have a few basic "known" ports (such as login and fingerd),
and if the server wants to it can expand beyond these known ones, through the
user of portmapper.
