INFO: Windows 95 RPC: Supported Protocol Sequences

ID: Q125701

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Win32 Software Development Kit (SDK)

SUMMARY

The Windows 95 RPC runtime libraries support a subset of the protocol sequences introduced in Microsoft RPC 1.0. Here is the list of supported protocol sequences:


  Protocol Sequence  Comments
  -----------------------------------------------------------------
  ncacn_ip_tcp       Requires TCP/IP installation
  ncacn_nb_nb        NetBEUI is the only supported NetBIOS transport
  ncacn_np           Support for client applications only
  ncacn_spx          Requires IPX/SPX installation
  ncalrpc            Local communication only

Regarding ncacn_np: Windows 95 does not support server-side named pipes, so ncacn_np is not a valid protocol sequence for RPC servers running on Windows 95. However, ncacn_np is valid for RPC client applications.
