     The Global Location Broker (GLB), part of the  Network  Com-
     puting  System  (NCS),  helps clients to locate servers on a
     network or internet.  The GLB database stores the  locations
     (that  is,  the  network  addresses  and port numbers) where
     server processes are running.  A daemon maintains this data-
     base and provides access to it.

     There are two versions of the GLB daemon, ggggllllbbbbdddd  and  nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd.
     We  provide the replicatable version, ggggllllbbbbdddd, only for Apollo,
     SunOS, and ULTRIX systems.  For other  systems,  we  provide
     the non-replicatable version, nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd.

     Here, we describe only nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd.

     Typically, nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd is started in  background  at  boot  time.
     Unless the host is an MS-DOS system, a Local Location Broker
     daemon (llllllllbbbbdddd) must be running on the local host when  nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd
     is started.

     On MS-DOS systems that use  DDS  network  protocols,  nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd
     uses DDS protocols; on other systems, it uses IP protocols.

     You should run only one nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd on a network or internet, and
     you  should not run an nnnnrrrrggggllllbbbbdddd and a ggggllllbbbbdddd on the same network
     or internet.
