GETRPCPORT(3R)GETRPCPORT(3R)NAMEgetrpcport - get RPC port number
SYNOPSIS
int getrpcport(host, prognum, versnum, proto)
char *host;
int prognum, versnum, proto;
DESCRIPTIONgetrpcport() returns the port number for version versnum
of the RPC program prognum running on host and using pro-
tocol proto. It returns 0 if it cannot contact the
portmapper, or if prognum is not registered. If prognum
is registered but not with version versnum, it will still
return a port number (for some version of the program)
indicating that the program is indeed registered. The
version mismatch will be detected upon the first call to
the service.
