Check or Attack Name: ypxfrd

The RPC ypxfrd service has been detected as running. The ypxfrd daemon is designed to significantly improve the efficiency of transferring NIS maps between hosts. The ypxfrd process registers with the RPC portmapper as program 100069.

This service should be disabled if your network does not implement NIS or is small enough that map transfers do not have a serious impact on performance.
