BUILDING CLIENT AND SERVER APPLICATIONS FOR
MICROSOFT WINDOWS NT:
-------------------------------------------

The following environment variables should be set for you already.       
  set CPU=i386                                                           
  set INCLUDE=c:\mstools\h                                               
  set LIB=c:\mstools\lib                                                 
  set PATH=c:\winnt\system32;c:\mstools\bin;

For mips, set CPU=mips                                                   
For alpha, set CPU=alpha                                                   

Build the sample distributed application:
  nmake cleanall
  nmake

This builds the executable programs helloc.exe 
(client) and hellos.exe (server).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
BUILDING THE CLIENT APPLICATION FOR MS-DOS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

After installing the Microsoft Visual C/C++ version 1.50 development 
environment and the Microsoft RPC version 2.0 toolkit on a Windows NT
computer, you can build the sample client application from Windows NT.

  nmake -f makefile.dos cleanall
  nmake -f makefile.dos

This builds the client application helloc.exe.

You may also execute the Microsoft Visual C/C++ compiler under MS-DOS.
This requires a two step build process.

  Step One: Compile the .IDL files under Windows NT
     nmake -a -f makefile.dos hello.h

  Step Two: Compile the C sources (stub and application) under MS-DOS.
     nmake -f makefile.dos

------------------------------------------
RUNNING THE CLIENT AND SERVER APPLICATIONS
------------------------------------------

On the server, enter

  hellos

On the client, enter

  net start workstation
  helloc

Note:  The client and server applications can run on
the same Microsoft Windows NT computer when you use
different screen groups.

Several command line switches are available to change
settings for this program. For a listing of the switches
available from the client program, enter

  helloc -?

For a listing of switches available from the server 
program, enter

  hellos -?
