the options.

	  to version 2 if a remote rpcbind service does not support versions

	  3 or 4.

	  RPC requests over IPv6 networks require support for larger

	  addresses when performing an RPC bind.  Sun added support for

	  IPv6 addressing by creating two new versions of the rpcbind

	  protocol (RFC 1833).
