RPC(5)                    OpenBSD Programmer's Manual                   RPC(5)

NAME
     rpc - rpc program number database

DESCRIPTION
     The rpc file contains user readable names that can be used in place of
     rpc program numbers.  Each line has the following information:

           name of server for the rpc program
           rpc program number
           aliases

     Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters.

     A hash mark (`#') indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent char-
     acters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines
     which search the file.

EXAMPLES
     Here is an example of the /etc/rpc file from the Sun RPC Source distribu-
     tion.
