whence RPCBIND_ARGS?

i'm tracing the execution of rpcbind on my f12 system, and in the common code, i read: prog="rpcbind" [ -f /etc/sysconfig/$prog ] && . /etc/sysconfig/$prog while in the start() function, there is: daemon $prog $RPCBIND_ARGS $1 i'm curious about this since: 1) there's no apparent documentation for setting/using $RPCBIND_ARGS 2) there's no /etc/sysconfig/rpcbind file for initial config 3) there's no mention of RPCBIND_ARGS in the rpcbind man page admittedly, that doesn't make any of this *wrong*, it just seems that $RPCBIND_ARGS is kind of hanging out there, without anyone making an effort to explain what might be done with it or why it would be useful. thoughts? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
