9 rpc \- rpc program number data base
18 The \fBrpc\fR file is a local source containing user readable names that can be
19 used in place of \fBRPC\fR program numbers. The \fBrpc\fR file can be used in
20 conjunction with or instead of other rpc sources, including the \fBNIS\fR maps
21 ``rpc.byname'' and ``rpc.bynumber''.
24 The rpc file has one line for each \fBRPC\fR program name. The line has the
29 \fIname-of-the-RPC-program\fR \fIRPC-program-number\fR \fIaliases\fR
35 Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters. A
36 ``\fB#\fR'' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of
37 the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.
