A client process resides on a host computer within a distributed data processing system, and the client process requests a remote procedure call for a service procedure. A binding handle of a server process is obtained; a determination is made as to whether the binding handle of the server process points to the client process; and in response to a determination that the binding handle of the server process points to the client process, a positive indication is generated that the service procedure is provided by the client process. In response to a determination that the service procedure is provided by the client process, the service procedure is called using a local procedure call after obtaining a local address for the function within the client process by looking up the service procedure in an interface registry.
