RPC Update Patch
Hi, I have uploaded the big stubless RPC patch to a website as it is rather large (~120k). You can get it here: http://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~csvmc/rpcrt4_3.diff As you can probably see, a lot of the stuff in this patch is a bit rough around the edges (lack of copyright notice in some files), but it does seem to work for a lot of cases. Rob P.S. It doesn't work for native OLE32 yet because we need some undocumented interfaces in RPCSS.
