Hey Neil,

My apologies on addressing this...
Too much PTO :-)

The first two patches here I wrote some years ago but never posted - sorry.
The third and fourth allow rpcbind to work with an abstract AF_UNIX
address as preferentially used by recent kernels.

   [PATCH 1/4] manpage: describe use of extra port for broadcast rpc
   [PATCH 2/4] rpcbind: allow broadcast RPC to be disabled.
You realize that the broadcast code is configured out by default
./configure  --help | grep rmt
    --enable-rmtcalls       Enables Remote Calls [default=no]

So do we want to introduce a flag and man page section
for something that is off by default?


Hmmm.... I guess I didn't know that when I wrote the patch - or forgot.

I wrote the patch a few years ago and found it when I was doing the
abstract address stuff and though I better submit it.  I was wrong.

Please just ignore those first two patches.
Ignored... the last two patches were committed (tag: rpcbind-1_2_7-rc3)

steved.


Thanks,
NeilBrown
