-.sp
-.BI "int rmc_mnt (char *" server ,
-.BI "char *" vid ,
-.BI "char *" loader );
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B rmc_mnt
-asks the Remote Media Changer server running on
-.I server
-to mount the volume
-.I vid
-on the drive specified by
-.IR loader .
-.TP
-.I server
-specifies the Remote Media Changer to be contacted.
-.TP
-.I vid
-is the volume visual identifier.
-It must be at most six characters long.
-.TP
-.I loader
-specifies the drive in the robot in the following form:
-.RS
-.TP
-smcDRIVE_ORDINAL
-.RE
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation
-failed. In the latter case,
-.B serrno
-have been set appropriately.
-
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP 1.2i
