RPCINFO(8) COMMAND REFERENCE RPCINFO(8) NAME rpcinfo - report RPC information SYNOPSIS rpcinfo -p [ host ] rpcinfo -u host program [ version ] rpcinfo -t host program [ version ] DESCRIPTION The program rpcinfo makes a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) to an RPC server and reports what it finds. OPTIONS -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(1N). -u Make an RPC call to procedure 0 of program on the specified host using User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and report whether a response was received. -t Make an RPC call to procedure 0 of program on the specified host using TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), and report whether a response was received. 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 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: rpcinfo, without a host name, generates an Ethernet broadcast packet, so information returned is limited to hosts on the local Ethernet; hosts accessible through gateways will not be included. If you specify a valid host name an IP packet is generated and rpcinfo can give information about a host that is accessible via a gateway as well as information about a host on the local Ethernet.
