NAME

6       rpc - rpc program number data base
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /etc/rpc
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The  rpc file is a local source containing user readable names that can
14       be used in place of RPC program numbers.  The  rpc file can be used  in
15       conjunction  with  or  instead  of other rpc sources, including the NIS
16       maps ``rpc.byname'' and ``rpc.bynumber'' and the NIS+ table ``rpc''.
17
18
19       The rpc file has one line for each RPC program name. The line  has  the
20       following format:
21
22         name-of-the-RPC-program RPC-program-number aliases
23
24
25
26       Items  are  separated  by any number of blanks and/or tab characters. A
27       ``#'' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of
28       the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.
