GETRPCPORT(3) BSD Programmer's Manual GETRPCPORT(3)NAMEgetrpcport - get RPC port number
SYNOPSIS
#include <rpc/rpc.h>
int
getrpcport(char *host, int prognum, int versnum, int proto);
DESCRIPTIONgetrpcport() returns the port number for version versnum of the RPC pro-
gram prognum running on host and using protocol 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 pro-
gram is indeed registered. The version mismatch will be detected upon the
first call to the service.
