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                                                   

Build the sample distributed application:
  nmake cleanall
  nmake

This builds the executable programs factlc.exe 
(client) and factls.exe (server).

If debugging information is desired, remove comments on line containing
'#define FACTL_DEBUG' located in GLOBALS.H file or build sample application
in the following manner:

  nmake cleanall
  nmake DEBUG=-DFACTL_DEBUG

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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 factlc.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 factl.h

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

If debugging information is desired, remove comments on line containing
'#define FACTL_DEBUG' located in GLOBALS.H file. 

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

On the server, enter

  factls

On the client, enter

  net start workstation
  factlc

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