hi

i'm writing apps with linux server and clinets from linux / solaris/ win32
i tought that it whould be a good idea to use XDR for binary data sent over the net.
using XDR in Linux & solaris was as easy as saying rpcgen, but M$ choose to use a another RPC( from DCE ) so their XDR tools are usless.

i was looking for XDR marshel/demarshel tools for win32, and didn't find them in the cygwin release, nor in any other free group.
but when using google i have came across old mailing list saying there is a port for SUNRPC for win32 done by Corinna Vinschen from cygnus.

pleas point me to the tools link if they are still exists ( i need only the rpcgen + XDR libaray calls )

THX
