NAME

rpc − rpc program number database

SYNOPSIS

/etc/rpc

DESCRIPTION

The rpc file contains user readable names that can be used in place of rpc program numbers.  Each line has the following information:

name of server for 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. 

Here is an example of the /etc/rpc file from the SunOS System.
