.B pmap_set
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B pmap_set
command can be used to restart a running portmapper or to set
the list of registered RPC programs on the local host. If you
want to use the program to restart the portmapper you have to
redirect the output of

to a file. After this you can restart the portmapper and restore
the list of the registered RPC programs by feeding the output
of
.B pmap_dump
to the
.B pmap_set
command.
