DESCRIPTION
       Please read Name service facility, introduction first.

       This package is internal and of no interest to users. It provides the
       commands of the name service facility which are shared by the client
       and server implemented by the packages nameserv::server and nameserv
       (the client).

       This service is built in top of and for the package comm.  It has
       nothing to do with the Internet's Domain Name System. If the reader is
       looking for a package dealing with that please see Tcllib's packages
       dns and resolv.

API
       The package exports a single command, as specified below:

       ::nameserv::common::port
              The result returned by the command is the id of the default
              TCP/IP port a nameservice server will listen on, and a name
              service client will try to connect to.
