Availability
The getrpcport() function is part of libtirpc.
Debian October 6, 1987 GETRPCPORT(3)
Description
The getrpcport() function returns the port number for version versnum of the RPC program prognum running
on host and using protocol proto. It returns 0 if it cannot contact the portmapper, or if prognum is not
registered. If prognum is registered but not with version 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.
