Hi fellows! And Hi Rick Sladkey (who is the good guy who gave
us fellow linuxers RPC)
As I don't get my nfsd/mountd to start (they just can't register their
services) I though I'd give it a try and look at this. Being a
beginner to RPC I looked at the examples in the documentation (in
rpc-0.9) ... and stumbled. It seems that the procedures rnuser, rstat,
and rwall in librpcsvc places a call to "rpc_call", which is defined
nowhere, causing my little rnuser-program not to link. If one replaces
by one to "callrpc", for which the last parameter to "rpc_call" needs
to be removed (is a null pointer anyway) the stuff just works fine. Am
I doing something wrong or do we have a version mess here or have I
found a real BUG???
Maybe this should be repaired for the next rpc-version.
Hank.
