             rpcvers_t high_vers);

     void

     void
     svcerr_weakauth(const SVCXPRT *xprt);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     These routines are part of the RPC library which allows C language programs
 to make procedure calls on other machines across the network.

     These routines can be called by the server side dispatch function if
     there is any error in the transaction with the client.

ROUTINES    [Toc]    [Back]

     See rpc(3) for the definition of the SVCXPRT data structure.

     svcerr_auth()
            Called by a service dispatch routine that refuses to perform a
            remote procedure call due to an authentication error.

            svcerr_decode() Called by a service dispatch routine that cannot
            successfully decode the remote parameters (see svc_getargs() in
            rpc_svc_reg(3)).

     svcerr_noproc()
            Called by a service dispatch routine that does not implement the
            procedure number that the caller requests.

     svcerr_noprog()
            Called when the desired program is not registered with the RPC
            package.  Service implementors usually do not need this routine.

     svcerr_progvers()
            Called when the desired version of a program is not registered
            with the RPC package.  low_vers is the lowest version number, and
            high_vers is the highest version number.  Service implementors
            usually do not need this routine.

     svcerr_systemerr()
            Called by a service dispatch routine when it detects a system
            error not covered by any particular protocol.  For example, if a
            service can no longer allocate storage, it may call this routine.

     svcerr_weakauth()
            Called by a service dispatch routine that refuses to perform a
            remote procedure call due to insufficient (but correct) authentication
 parameters.  The routine calls svcerr_auth(xprt,
            AUTH_TOOWEAK).
