NFSSVC(2)           RISC/os Reference Manual            NFSSVC(2)



NAME
     nfssvc, async_daemon - NFS daemons

SYNOPSIS
     For -systype svr3 and -systype bsd43:

     nfssvc(sock)
     int sock;

     asyncdaemon()

DESCRIPTION
     nfssvc starts an NFS daemon listening on socket sock.  The
     socket must be AF_INET, and SOCK_DGRAM (protocol UDP/IP).
     The system call will return only if the process is killed.

     asyncdaemon implements the NFS daemon that handles asyn-
     chronous I/O for an NFS client.  The system call never
     returns.

ERRORS
     These two system calls allow kernel processes to have user
     context.

SEE ALSO
     mountd(1M) in the System Administrator's Reference Manual.

ORIGIN
     Sun Microsystems

NOTE
     When these routines are used in a program which is compiled
     in -systype svr3, they are not resolved by libc.a.  See
     intro(3) for more information.
