        Does anybody know how the abort call is implemented in NCS/RPC?
Can the client terminate a server when it is executing using abort call? If not,
when the client can terminate a server? Will the abort call kill the server or
just abort a particular request without killing the server?
        Another thing I am curious about the server implementation in NCS/RPC
is whether the server can server multiple client(different process)? If yes,
is the client requests queued and served in FIFO order?
        Thanks in advance. Please reply to me directly, I will resume to the
net if enough interest.
