Annotation of 43BSD/contrib/sunrpc/README, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: Things that you should be aware of:
                      2: 
                      3: 1.  At Sun, RPC is part of the C library.  This makefile will make a library
                      4: called rpclib.
                      5: 
                      6: 2.  I have added two other files - portmap.c and rcpinfo.c; they usually
                      7: do not live in this directory.  Also, both files
                      8: assume that the rpc dot h files have been installed in /usr/include.
                      9: 
                     10: portmap.c is the source to /etc/portmap, the rpc deamon which must be started
                     11: by root before any other rpc based servers or clients.
                     12: 
                     13: rpcinfo.c dumps the information that the portmap keeps; at Sun, it lives
                     14: in /usr/etc/rpcinfo.
                     15: 
                     16: 3. The rpc library was built with a post-1.1 Sun release of the compiler.
                     17: Old compilers complain about valid C.  You can make old compilers happy
                     18: by changing some voids to ints.
                     19: 
                     20: 4. The documentation is in ditroff form in subdirectory doc.  It depends
                     21: on a Sun macro package (/usr/lib/tmac/tmac.sun) which I have included.
                     22:

                     24: Sun Microsystems, Inc
