 hosts that are known to export NFS filesystems with little restrictions).

+There are now two different RPC compilers:

+1) Wim Lewis rpcgen.py found on http://www.omnigroup.com/~wiml/soft/stale-index.html#python.

+2) Peter Åstrands rpcgen.py, which is part of "pynfs" (http://www.cendio.se/~peter/pynfs/).

 # Mount RPC client -- RFC 1094 (NFS), Appendix A
 
 # This module demonstrates how to write your own RPC client in Python.
-# Since there is no RPC compiler for Python (yet), you must first
-# create classes derived from Packer and Unpacker to handle the data
-# types for the server you want to interface to.  You then write the
-# client class.  If you want to support both the TCP and the UDP
-# version of a protocol, use multiple inheritance as shown below.
