To Determine if Version 1 Is Running

On a system running the SunOS 4.0 operating system or compatible version, enter:

rpcinfo -u servername 150001 1

If the server is running the old version of pcnfsd, you will see the following message:

proc 150001 vers 1 ready and waiting

In this case, upgrade to version 2.

If neither version is running, try starting the daemon by entering /usr/etc/rpc.pcnfsd and then check the version.

If that fails, you need to install rpc.pcnfsd.

Source code and binary versions of rpc.pcnfsd are distributed on your Solstice Network Client CD-ROM in compressed UNIX tar files. Before installing the daemon, check your server to see if rpc.pcnfsd is already present. If not, install it using the appropriate installation procedure.

With pcnfsd version 1, you were able to install rpc.pcnfsd so that it was started by the inetd superdaemon. The new rpc.pcnfsd daemon must execute a possibly lengthy configuration sequence each time its starts. To avoid delays--and possible time-outs--you should arrange for the daemon to be invoked from /etc/rc.local (SunOS 4.0 operating system or compatible versions) or by means of a script in the init.d directory (SunOS 5.4 operating system or compatible versions). Do not use inetd.
