Installing and Running the greet Application

This section describes the process for an administrator who is installing and starting up the greet application, and a user who is running it.

· Installing the Client and Server Programs

An administrator installs the greet_client program on machines on which users will run the greet application. The administrator also installs the greet_server program on one or more machines that will execute the server part of the greet application.

· Starting the greet server

To start up the greet server, the administrator enters the following command on a machine that has the Greet Server installed:

greet_server /.../my_cell/subsys/my_company/greet_server

· Running the greet application

To run the greet application, a user types the following command on any greet client machine:

greet_client /.../my_cell/subsys/my_company/greet_server

The greet server will print the message it received from the greet client. Then the greet client prints the reply that the greet server sent back to it.
