RFSADDR(ADMN)


     RFSADDR(ADMN)                      UNIX System V



     Name
          rfsaddr - generate RFS addresses for use with TCP/IP


     Syntax
          /etc/rfsaddr [ -p portno ] [ host ... ] [ IP address ... ]


     Description
          Rfsaddr prints IP host addresses in the format required  for
          the  Remote  File  Sharing  package.   If  no hostname or IP
          address is specified the hostname of the current  system  is
          used.   IP  addresses  must be specified in dotted notation,
          e.g. 192.35.52.3.

          RFS uses two TCP port numbers, one for the listener, and one
          for  the remote login service.  The default port numbers are
          1025 for the listener and 1026 for the login service.


     Options
          -p        Use the next argument as the listener port number.
                    The remote login service will use portno + 1.


     Caveats
          The RFS listener must  be  started  after  slink(ADMN),  but
          before  other  TCP  utilities. Otherwise it is possible that
          the desired port numbers may already  be  in  use  by  other
          network  activities.  This  will  prevent  the listener from
          starting.


     Diagnostics
          Exits with status 0 if successful, 1 if not.
