+By default,
+.B rpc.statd
+sends logging messages via
+.BR syslog (3)
+to system log.  The

+.B stderr
+instead. This option is mainly for debugging purposes, and may only

+.BR rpc.statd
+will call
+.BR gethostname (2)
+to get the local hostname. Specifying
+a local hostname may be useful for machines with more than one

+to send outgoing status requests from.  By default,
+.BR rpc.statd
+will ask
+.BR portmap (8)
+to assign it a port number.  As of this writing, there is not
+a standard port number that
+.BR portmap

+.SH TCP_WRAPPERS SUPPORT
+This
+.B rpc.statd
+version is protected by the
+.B tcp_wrapper
+library. You have to give the clients access to
+.B rpc.statd
+if they should be allowed to use it. To allow connects from clients of
+the .bar.com domain you could use the following line in /etc/hosts.allow:
+
+statd: .bar.com
+
+You have to use the daemon name 
+.B statd
+for the daemon name (even if the binary has a different name).
+
+For further information please have a look at the
+.BR tcpd (8),
+.BR hosts_allow (5)
+and
+.BR hosts_access (5)
+manual pages.
