rpcinfo: List all programs registered on a remote computer.
$ rpcinfo /p ${computer_name}
try on your machine

The command "rpcinfo /p ${computer_name}" is used to query the remote procedure call (RPC) information of a specified computer.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

  • "rpcinfo": This is the main command used to gather information about available RPC services.
  • "/p": This flag is used to specify the program numbers of RPC services instead of the names.
  • "${computer_name}": This is a variable placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name or IP address of the computer you want to query.

When you run this command, it will connect to the specified computer and retrieve a list of registered RPC services along with their program numbers. This information can be helpful for troubleshooting network connectivity or identifying potential vulnerabilities.
