which stores information about RPC-based server programs running on the local host.
A host must run if it is to support the Location Broker forwarding function or to allow remote access (for example, by the tool) to the LLB
database. In general, any host that runs an RPC-based server program must run an and must be running before any such servers are started.
Additionally, any network supporting RPC activity should have at least one host running a Global Location Broker Daemon ( ).
On ULTRIX systems, is typically started by a line in such as the following:
/etc/ncs/llbd& echo -n ' llbd' > /dev/console
If your system contains more than one broadcast interface, the RPC software uses only the broadcast interface associated with the value in
your file.
