    Subject: Apparent RPC problem

    RPC System version 415.0 when loaded with (load-system) on a NON-IVORY machine
    apparently leaves out at least the following essential files:
    ;(load "sys:embedding;rpc;utilities")  
    ;(load "sys:embedding;rpc;remote-call")  
    ;(load "sys:embedding;rpc;remote-type")  
    ;(load "sys:embedding;rpc;type-definitions")  
       These are required for define-remote-module and define-remote-entry.

We are doing some distributed work in which we use RPC between Lisp
machines.  "RPC" is spread across several systems, which include:

  RPC
  RPC-Development
  Network-RPC

The functions to get transport agents are defined in the Network-RPC
system, which, by the way, only comes bundled with NFS!  Chris Stacy at
Symbolics told me that these components should be bundled together in a
single system in Genera 8.1.
