ESERVICES(5)                 UNIX System V(ANNEX)                  ESERVICES(5)


NAME
      eservices - erpcd network services database

SYNOPSIS
      /etc/eservices

DESCRIPTION
      The /etc/eservices file defines the services that the Annex network
      server erpcd(8) offers.

      Each line of the file consists of four fields separated by tabs or
      spaces.  The fields are:

      o   a request number identifying the service

      o   the lowest numbered version supported

      o   the highest numbered version supported

      o   the name of the server called to perform the service.

      The two standard services are bfs, the block file server that downloads
      Annex operational code and uploads Annex crash dumps, and acp, the Access
      Control Protocol server that handles security authorization requests from
      an Annex.

      Lines beginning with "#" are comment lines.  The distributed
      /etc/eservices file is:

      # erpc remote programs
      #
      # prog no.       verlo  verhiimage
      #
      1        0       0      bfs
      #3       0       99     acp

      Note that the line describing the acp service is commented out.  Be sure
      to read the chapter on security in the Annex Network Administrator's
      Guide before removing this comment.
