NAME

6       getrpcport - get RPC port number
7

SYNOPSIS

9       int getrpcport(host, prognum, versnum, proto)
10            char *host;
11            int prognum, versnum, proto;
12

DESCRIPTION

14       getrpcport()  returns  the  port  number for version versnum of the RPC
15       program prognum running on host and using protocol proto.  It returns 0
16       if  it  cannot contact the portmapper, or if prognum is not registered.
17       If prognum is registered but not with version versnum,  it  will  still
18       return  a port number (for some version of the program) indicating that
19       the program  is  indeed  registered.   The  version  mismatch  will  be
20       detected upon the first call to the service.
