incorrect rpcclient usage

The usage for the "rpcclient" command shows:

	Usage: rpcclient server [options]

However, (on HPUX 11 anyway) it only works as:

	Usage: rpcclient [options] server

Looking in the source, it is because the "getopts" is ran first before the
server name is extracted from the command line arguments.  I don't know if
"getopts" ignors non-args on other platforms, but on HPUX it will stop
processing at the first argument that doesn't start with a "-".
