NAME

       sunrpc - Call and probe selected Sun RPC services.
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The sunrpc command allows to call and probe selected Sun RPC (RFC 1831, RFC 1832) services.

SUNRPC COMMAND

       sunrpc info host
	      The  sunrpc  info  command returns a list of all registered Sun RPC services on host. Each list element contains the program number,
	      the program version, the protocol name, the port number and the name of the RPC service. The command fails, if host is unknown or if
	      the portmapper does not respond to our request.

       sunrcp probe host program version protocol
	      The  sunrcp probe command tests a Sun RPC service identified by program version protocol on host by calling procedure 0. This proce-
	      dure returns a list of two elements. The first element is the time needed to complete the RPC call  and  the  second  element  is  a
	      string which describes if the probe was successful.

       sunrpc stat host
	      The  sunrpc  stat command makes an rstat RPC call to host and returns a list of name type value triples describing the status of the
	      machine. This command fails if host is not reachable or does not support the rstat service.

       sunrpc mount host
	      The sunrpc mount command retrieves a list of all NFS file systems currently mounted from host. Each element of  this  list  includes
	      the directory name and the host which exports the directory.

       sunrpc exports host
	      The  sunrpc  exports  command  retrieves	a  list  of  all NFS file systems exported by host. Each element of this list contains the
	      exported directory name and the list of hosts that are allowed to mount the exported directory. An empty host  list  means  that	an
	      exported directory can be mounted by everyone.

       sunrpc ether host open
       sunrpc ether host
       sunrpc ether host close
	      The  sunrpc  ether command allows to query an etherd daemon for ethernet statistics. You first have to register at the remote etherd
	      using the open command option. Afterwards, you can query the etherd which will return a list of name type value  triples	describing
	      the  packets  counted since the last query. You should unregister at the remote etherd using the close option once you are no longer
	      interested in ethernet statistics.

       sunrpc pcnfs host info [array]
       sunrpc pcnfs host list [array]
       sunrpc pcnfs host queue printer [array]
       sunrpc pcnfs host status printer array
	      The sunrpc pcnfs command allows to retrieve printer status information provided by the pcnfsd daemon. The  first	command  retrieves
	      the  daemon  identification. The optional array variable will be filled with details about the supported procedures. The second com-
	      mand returns the list of all printer names known by the pcnsfd daemon on host. The optional array is indexed  by	printer  name  and
	      contains	additional  information  about each printer. The queue subcommand retrieves the printer queue and returns the actual queue
	      length. Information about queued print jobs is written to the array variable if given. The array is indexed by  the  queue  position
	      and  contains  information about the print job in key value pairs. The last pcnfs command retrieves printer specific status informa-
	      tion about the printer itself. The status is written into the array variable.

NAME

       rpc - A simple RPC protocol for Tcl applications.

DESCRIPTION

RPC COMMAND

       rpc server port
              Set  up  an  RPC  server  listening  an port port. This command returns a rpc handle that be used to register Tcl procs that will be
              exported by a trivial RPC protocol on top of TCP. This RPC mechanism allows us to write cooperating scripts  without  worrying  much
              about the communication protocol.

       rpc client host port
              Connect  to the RPC server running on host with port port.  The returned client handle can be used to invoke an exported proc on the
              server host.

       rpc delete handle
              Delete a server or a client RPC handle. All connections associated with the handle will be closed.

       rpc register rpchandle proc
              Export proc as an RPC callable proc using the server handle rpchandle. Only registered procs can be called by RPC clients.

       rpc unregister rpchandle proc
              Remove proc from the list of exported procs on server handle rpchandle.

       rpc info [rpchandle]
              Calling rpc info without any arguments returns a list of all rpc handles that have been created using the rpc server and rpc  client
              command.   Info about a specific rpc file handle rpchandle is returned by using the optional argument. The result is a list contain-
              ing the tcp file handle used for the communication and the list of registered commands for a rpc handle and a list of all files that
              represent connections to an rpc server. This list is empty if rpchandle belongs to a rpc client.

       rpc# [-async] proc arg1 arg2 ...
              To  invoke  a remote procedure proc, use the same syntax as used with a local invocation preceeded by a client rpchandle. The result
              of the remote procedure call will be returned or an error if the underlying communication channel signals errors. The -async options
              can be used to invoke proc without waiting for it to complete. The async option will never return a result.
