Table of Contentsrpcinfo - report RPC information rpcinfo rpcinfo program rpcinfo program rpcinfo program version rpcinfo program version rpcinfo makes an RPC call to an RPC server and reports what it finds.
- -p
- Probe the portmapper on host , and print a list of all registered RPC programs. If host is not specified, it defaults to the value returned by hostname (1).
- -u
- Make an RPC call to procedure 0 of program on the specified host using UDP , and report whether a response was received.
- -t
- Make an RPC call to procedure 0 of program on the specified host using TCP , and report whether a response was received.
- -n
- Use portnum as the port number for the and options instead of the port number given by the portmapper.
- -b
- Make an RPC broadcast to procedure 0 of the specified program and version using UDP and report all hosts that respond.
- -d
- Delete registration for the RPC service of the specified program and version . This option can be exercised only by the super-user.
The program argument can be either a name or a number.
If a version is specified, rpcinfo attempts to call that version of the specified program . Otherwise, rpcinfo attempts to find all the registered version numbers for the specified program by calling version 0 (which is presumed not to exist; if it does exist, rpcinfo attempts to obtain this information by calling an extremely high version number instead) and attempts to call each registered version. Note: the version number is required for and options.
To show all of the RPC services registered on the local machine use:
To show all of the RPC services registered on the machine named klaxon use:
To show all machines on the local net that are running the Yellow Pages service use:
where 'version' is the current Yellow Pages version obtained from the results of the switch above.
To delete the registration for version 1 of the walld service use:
rpc (5), portmap (8)
In releases prior to SunOS 3.0, the Network File System (NFS) did not register itself with the portmapper; rpcinfo cannot be used to make RPC calls to the NFS server on hosts running such releases.
