I have two questions related to Mach RPC between two (or more) physically separated hosts: 1) What transport protocols are used for RPCs? 2) How is data representation handled (is there an XDR-like standard for Mach RPC)? I think both of these functions fall under the aupices of the NetMsgServer that extends IPC across the network. I thought I had all the docs for 2.5, but I don't see anything concerning the NetMsgServer, beyond the netname services. Is there a document that explicitly describes the NetMsgServer (and not the doc on network server design)? Thanks in advance. -- Bradley C.
