GETRPCPORT(3) BSD Library Functions Manual GETRPCPORT(3)
NAME
getrpcport — get RPC port number
SYNOPSIS
int
getrpcport(char *host, int prognum, int versnum, int proto);
DESCRIPTION
The getrpcport() function returns the port number for version versnum of
the RPC program prognum running on host and using protocol proto. It re-
turns 0 if it cannot contact the portmapper, or if prognum is not regis-
tered. 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 de-
tected upon the first call to the service.
AVAILABILITY
The getrpcport() function is part of libtirpc.
