AFAIK, 390109 is "nsrstat" where "nsr" stands for Legato Networker (also
known as Solstice Backup). I know nothing certain 300214. A fuzzy
reference I found in one of FreeBSD lists suggests this service might be
related to FrameMaker. There should be a registry of these numbers
maintained by Sun but I do not know how one could access it (besides
the tiny portion in /etc/rpc).
BTW: From what I have seen, various people have been complaining about
these probes for a year. I smell a problem.
