Publishing with the RPC Name Service (RpcNs)

RPC services publish themselves in a namespace using the RPC name service (RpcNs) APIs. The RpcNs APIs in Microsoft® Windows® 2000 publish the RPC entries in Microsoft® Active Directory™. Services create RPC bindings and publish them in the namespace as named RPC Server entries with attributes including the unique interface ID, a GUID that is known to clients. Clients can then search for RPC Servers offering the desired interface, import the binding, and connect to the server.
