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

Set the environment variables appropriately:
  set CPU=i386
  set INCLUDE=c:\nt\sdk\inc;c:\nt\sdk\inc\crt
  set LIB=c:\nt\sdk\lib\i386
  set PATH=c:\nt\windows\system;
or
  set CPU=MIPS
  set INCLUDE=c:\nt\sdk\inc;c:\nt\sdk\inc\crt
  set LIB=c:\nt\sdk\lib\mips
  set PATH=c:\nt\windows\system;

Build the sample distributed application:
  nmake cleanall
  nmake

This builds the executable programs xmitc.exe 
(client) and xmits.exe (server).

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

After you install the Microsoft C/C++ version 7.0
development environment and Microsoft RPC toolkit on
an MS-DOS or Microsoft Windows computer, you can build
the sample client application for MS-DOS. Enter:

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

This builds the client application xmitc.exe.

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

On the server, enter

  net start workstation
  net start server
  xmits

On the client, enter

  net start workstation
  xmitc

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

  xmitc -?

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

  xmits -?
