That sounds very wierd ... assuming you have done the normal things
like include the rpc.h header file and theres nothing wrong with
clnt.h, i suspect it has something to do with the version.
I am running Sunos 4.0 and it has clnt_create. 

I have the same release (may 1988) documentation , and thats about
the best documentation on the subject.
