Lists programs on remote computers. The rpcinfo command-line utility makes a remote procedure call (RPC) to an RPC server and reports what it finds.

Syntax

rpcinfo [/p [<node>]] [/b <program version>] [/t <node program> [<version>]] [/u <node program> [<version>]]

Parameters

Parameter Description
/p [<node>] lists all programs registered with the port mapper on the specified host. If you do not specify a node (computer) name, the program queries the port mapper on the local host.
/b <program version> Requests a response from all network nodes that have the specified program and version registered with the port mapper. You must specify both a program name or number and a version number.
/t <node program> [\<version>] Uses the TCP transport protocol to call the specified program. You must specify both a node (computer) name and a program name. If you do not specify a version, the program calls all versions.
/u <node program> [\<version>] Uses the UDP transport protocol to call the specified program. You must specify both a node (computer) name and a program name. If you do not specify a version, the program calls all versions.
/? Displays help at the command prompt.

Examples

To list all programs registered with the port mapper, type:

rpcinfo /p [<node>]

To request a response from network nodes that have a specified program, type:

rpcinfo /b <program version>

To use Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) to call a program, type:

rpcinfo /t <node program> [<version>]

Use User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to call a program:

rpcinfo /u <node program> [<version>]
