NAME

       rpc - rpc program number data base

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/rpc

DESCRIPTION

       The  rpc file is a local source containing user readable names that can be used in place of RPC program numbers.  The  rpc file can be used
       in conjunction with or instead of other rpc sources, including the NIS maps ``rpc.byname'' and ``rpc.bynumber'' and the NIS+ table ``rpc''.

       The rpc file has one line for each RPC program name. The line has the following format:

       name-of-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.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: RPC Database

       Below is an example of an RPC database:

       #
       #    rpc
       #
       rpcbind	 100000    portmap   sunrpc    portmapper
       rusersd	 100002    rusers
       nfs  100003    nfsprog
       mountd	 100005    mount     showmount
       walld	 100008    rwall     shutdown
       sprayd	 100012    spray
       llockmgr  100020
       nlockmgr  100021
       status	 100024

NAME

       rpc - rpc program number data base

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/rpc

DESCRIPTION

       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 from the '#' to
       the end of the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.

       Here is an example of the /etc/rpc file from the Sun RPC Source distribution.
