Event ID 1076 — NFS Port Registration

Applies To: Windows Server 2008 R2

Network File System (NFS) clients discover NFS servers by querying the port mapper for a remote server. RPC Port Mapper converts RPC data into TCP and UDP protocol port numbers. It must be active for Server for NFS to start.
