     rwall: RPC: Timed out
             A communication error occurred.  Either the network is excessive-
             ly congested, or the rpc.rwalld(8) daemon has terminated on the
             remote host.

     rwall: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out
             The remote host is not running the portmapper (see portmap(8)),
