bash-2.01# rpcinfo -p <host>
   program vers proto   port
    100000    2   tcp    111  portmapper
    100000    2   udp    111  portmapper

It's exactly the same if I run it on the BSD machine against the linux box
or vice-versa.

My hosts.allow and hosts.deny were both empty.  Do I want to do:

/etc/hosts.allow:
my.ip.addresses

/etc/hosts.deny:
ALL

right?
