RPC(5)  —  UNIX Programmer’s Manual

NAME

rpc − rpc program number data base

SYNOPSIS

/etc/rpc

DESCRIPTION

NOTE: This file is superceded by netinfo(5) if NetInfo is running. 

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.
