Garrett Wollman 990647991e Moving Sun RPC code into libc, part 1. Based on work done by a number of
people, including J.T. Conklin, Theo de Raadt, Paul Richards, and probably
someone else who's going to flame me as soon as they see this message.

.TH GETRPCPORT 3R "6 October 1987"
.SH NAME
getrpcport \- get RPC port number
.SH SYNOPSIS
.ft B
.nf
int getrpcport(host, prognum, versnum, proto)
char *host;
int prognum, versnum, proto;
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX getrpcport "" "\fLgetrpcport\fR \(em get RPC port number"
.B getrpcport(\|)
returns the port number for version
.I versnum
of the RPC program
.I prognum
running on
.I host
and using protocol
.IR proto .
It returns 0 if it cannot contact the portmapper, or if
.I prognum
is not registered. If
.I prognum
is registered but not with version
.IR 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 detected upon the first call to the service.
