ls_rgetmnthost()
Obtains the name of the file server that exports a specified file system.
DESCRIPTION
This routine performs operations on files located on remote hosts.
ls_rgetmnthost() obtains the name of the file server that exports the file system mounted on host that contains file, where file is a relative or absolute path name. If host is NULL, the local host name is assumed. This call corresponds to the ls_getmnthost() call.
Either the RES must be running at the remote host to service any remote file operation or rcp() be available.
ls_initrex() must be called before calling any remote file operation.
This remote file operation makes use of a Remote File Server on the remote host. When this RFS shuts down, its status will be reported to its client. The client should ignore this status.
