In Sun's Remote Procedure Call Programming Guide, you'll find the right information (I have no idea why it wasn't included in the RFC). It says: ``To register a protocol specification, send a request by network mail to rpc@sun [sic], or write to: RPC Administrator Sun Microsystems 2550 Garcia Ave. Mountain View, CA 94043 Please include a compilable ".x" file describing your protocol. You will be given a unique program number in return.'' Carl P.S. That's RFC 1057, not 1157.
