Respected Sir / Madam,
     I am Balaji Raghavan. I am doing final year undergraduate project
called Highly Available Network File server on FreeBSD.We are using 4.3
FreeBSD. I am facing a problem. In order to check if the NFS server is
alive I need to invoke the NFS NULL RPC (RPC 0)on client side. I have
found out a function called nfsrv_null in nfs/nfs_serv.c with a comment
that "Null operation , used by clients to ping server".Please tell me
how to invoke the NULL RPC from client side.

Thanking all in anticipation,
                                            Yours Sincerely,
                                            Balaji Raghavan.
