RPC(5)                    NetBSD File Formats Manual                    RPC(5)


NAME

     rpc -- rpc program number data base


SYNOPSIS

     /etc/rpc


DESCRIPTION

     The rpc file is a local source containing user readable names that can be
     used in place of RPC program numbers.

     The rpc file has one line for each RPC program name. The line has the
     following format:

           name-of-the-RPC-program  RPC-program-number  aliases

     Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters.  A
     hash (``#'') indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the
     end of the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.


FILES

     /etc/nsswitch.conf
