I emailed TRANSARC with the same question.  I was interested in DCE RPC
for the Mac.  They said they had no plans for it, but that they thought
APPLE was negotiating with Gradient Systems to build one.  Gradient just
released DCE RPC for the Windows environment, which they will be pushing
at the upcoming OSF/DCE conference in California.  I emailed Gradient
several times, but I have not received any response yet.  We might try
posting something to the apple-internet-users listserv.

If anyone else has any more info, please post!
