+A service type  for the RPC portmapper daemon.
+@end defvr
+
+
+@deftp {Data Type} rpcbind-configuration
+Data type representing the configuration of the RPC Bind Service.
+This type has the following parameters:
+@table @asis
+@item @code{rpcbind} (default: @code{rpcbind})
+The rpcbind package to use.
+
+@item @code{warm-start?} (default: @code{#t})
+If this parameter is @code{#t}, then the daemon will read a
+state file on startup thus reloading state information saved by a previous
+instance.
