>It's something like this:
struct binding {
u_short local_ypbind_udp_port_for_v2;
u_short unknown1;
u_short unknown2;
struct in_addr ypserv_ip_addr_for_v2;
u_short ypserv_udp_port_for_v2;
/* on sparc this pads to a long word */
};
unknown0 always seems to be 0. No idea what this might be.
unknown1 always seems to be 1. I think this might be the "minimum version of
YP supported". I only support version 2 of YP.
Also note that the structure may not pad between unknown1 & the in_addr.
At some stage we might have to change this. Ouch -- all old binaries are
going to suffer for this! Anyways, probably better sooner than later.
