[OLUG] statd

[mesc]

i just dl'ed and installed the newest version of saint and scanned my
box with it and it found one possible vulnerability.....statd....i saw a
rpc.statd in  ps aux  so i killed it yet when i opened linuxconf in the
start sevices menu (as root) it gave no listing on statd  or
rpc.statd,either did ntsysv.I'm not running nfs so i can elimanate this
at bootup.I think i can comment it out in the appropiate file in rc.d
but i'm relatively new to linux yet so i'm unsure as to which file to
look in.Can someone enlighten me as to which  file?Or maybe someone
knows a better way.

            Thanx,mesc
