RPC(5)

NAME
rpc - rpc program number data base

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.
