rpcinfo(8) OSS Shell and Utilities Reference Manual
The associated flags specify the TCP/IP client protocol used to
contact the portmapper process, as follows:
-t Use the TCP protocol.
-u Use the UDP protocol.
If neither flag is specified, TCP protocol is used.
-n portnum { -u | -t }
Makes an RPC call using the port identified within the TCP/IP
host definition file by portnum and reports whether a response is
received. The RPC call is made to procedure 0 of a targeted RPC
program that is identified by the other specified options.
If this flag is not specified, the RPC call is made to the program
using the first port specified for the targeted program in the RPC
program definition file.
The associated flags specify the TCP/IP client protocol used to
contact the targeted program, as follows:
-t Use the TCP protocol.
-u Use the UDP protocol.
One of these flags must be specified, as indicated by the { } nota-
tion.
host Specifies the host on which the targeted program runs.
The host value can be specified either as the name or the dotted-
decimal form of the IP address of a host within a reachable
TCP/IP network.
Note that the host value is not the same as the node value.
The host value is case-sensitive; that is, the specified name must
match the case of the host name within the TCP/IP host definition
file. For example, specifying FORTY.TANDEM.COM does not
match an entry of forty.tandem.com.
program Specifies the targeted program.
The program value can be specified either as the name of a pro-
gram within the RPC program definition file or as the program
number of a program defined in that file.
The program value is case-sensitive; that is, the specified name
must match the case of the program name within the RPC pro-
gram definition file. For example, specifying PORTMAPPER
does not match an entry of portmapper.
version Specifies the version of the targeted program as defined within the
RPC program definition file.
If no value is specified for version in those cases where version is
not required, RPCINFO attempts to identify all registered ver-
sions of the targeted program. RPCINFO first calls version 0
(zero), which is assumed not to exist. If version 0 exists,
RPCINFO calls a very high version number instead.
