Converts a socket address to a host name and port number.
void rpc_$sockaddr_to_name (sockaddr, slength, name, nlength, port, status) socket_$addr_t *sockaddr; unsigned long slength; unsigned long *nlength; char *name; unsigned long *port; status_$t *status;
The rpc_$sockaddr_to_name routine provides the address family, the host name, and the port number identified by the specified socket address.
