I'm pretty sure it was picked up; NFS is generally available on many
UNIX systems; NFS requires RPC; and RPC requires XDR.

See RFC1790 and RFC1014.

Unix for brains: Wow - you can think of lots of things all at once
until your brain runs out of sockets. You can only talk though with
people who have brains made by the same vendor. Unfortunately you also
never make any sense and have to read manuals to learn how to
think. Predominantly a random thinker.
