RPCBPROC_SET

When a program first becomes available on a machine, it registers itself with the rpcbind program running on the same machine. The program passes its program number prog; version number vers; network identifier netid; and the universal address uaddr; on which it awaits service requests.

The procedure returns a Boolean response with the value TRUE if the procedure successfully established the mapping and FALSE otherwise. The procedure refuses to establish a mapping if one already exists for the ordered set (prog, vers, netid).

Note that neither netid nor uaddr can be NULL, and that netid should be a valid network identifier on the machine making the call.
