no name services! rpc_ns_binding_xxx() is blank!

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

argh!

implicit_handle types take the first argument of
a dce/rpc function and do a look-up on that argument
with rpc_ns_binding_lookup_begin.

this presumes that rpc_ns_binding_export has been
called by a server to register the UUID of the
service IDL with an appropriate name.

see include/dce/rpc.idl grep for rpc_ns_binding to find
a list of all relevant functions.

... trouble is, these are implemented in
dcelib/dummyfuncs.c

... errr does the name give you any clues? :) :)

ARGH :)


does this give people clues as to what that nice little
dialog box on the Network Control Panel in NT4 does?  the
one for configuring the "RPC" service, to select either
"Windows Naming Service" or "DCE Cell Directory Services"?

ah ha!  another piece of the puzzle fits together...

*sob* :)
