Re: Is The RPC a Protocol or a winXP-Service?

[Jimi Thompson <jimit () myrealbox com>]

Services, protocols, and ports are completely seperate things.  A 
protocol is something like an IETF standard like http.  A service is the 
software that operates under the protocol, like Apache.  The port is the 
network port (TCP or UDP) that the service runs on, like port 80.
