novice student needs help

Help! I am very stuck!!!

I have to produce a practical implementation of ONC RPC for an assignment and I do not know where to start. I hve done much searching on sun's site but everything is too complicated for someone with my limited knowledge. I only know the very basic unix commands and have no experience of C programming (only Java). What I need is just a very simple idea of how to get started on this. As I have never used C I don't even know what sw to use to write the program.

If anyone could help me by explaining where I should start in very basic terms and save me from this nightmare of not understanding all the stuff I am reading

Thanks

Really sounds like you've jumped into a class that exceeds your preparation... That being said, The RFC for RPC can be found at:

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1831.txt?number=1831

More ONC RPC info can be found at:

http://www.onc-rpc-xdr.com/

What compiler have you been instructed to use? Which systems? Windows, Solaris, Linux, BSD etc.?

Cheers,

Keith
