TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS

This manual provides comprehensive guidance for programmers developing network applications using Open Network Computing Remote Procedure Calls (ONC RPC) on HP OpenVMS systems (I64, Alpha, and VAX). It covers the RPC model, protocol specification using the RPCGEN compiler, external data representation (XDR) for data portability, and the various layers of the RPC programming interface. The guide includes detailed instruction on client and server programming, debugging, handling network broadcasts, and security/authentication. It also serves as a reference for XDR routines, client routines, Portmapper routines, and server routines.
