Linux mountd bug. This is a popular bug that people are scanning for. Most 
scans on this port are UDP-based, but they are increasingly TCP-based 
(mountd runs on both ports simultaneously). Note that mountd can run at 
any port (for which you must first do a portmap lookup at port 111), it's 
just that Linux defaulted to port 635 in much the same way that NFS 
universally runs at port 2049.
