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.
