NAME

       rpc - Remote procedure call file

DESCRIPTION

       The rpc file is an ASCII file that contains the following information:

       rpc name
       numerical rpc ID
       aliases

       Each  rpc  name is separated from the next by a new line.  Items are separated by any number of blanks or tab characters or both.  A number
       sign (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by routines that search the file.

       The rpc database can be distributed in a network by a naming service, such as Network Information Service (NIS) or BIND.  See  the  Network
       Administration for setup information.

NAME

       rpc - rpc program number database

       The rpc file contains user readable names that can be used in place of rpc program numbers. Each line has the following information:

       name of server for the rpc program
       rpc program number
       aliases

       Items  are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters. A "#" indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of
       the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.
