SYNOPSIS

/etc/rpc

DESCRIPTION

The rpc file contains user readable names that can be used in place of RPC program numbers. For each RPC program a single line should be present with the following information:

  1. name of the RPC program
  2. RPC program number
  3. 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
