1. Extract the tar archive as the solid user in your solid directory 
   with the following command sequence:
	cd ~solid
	uncompress sd22*.Z
	tar xvf sd22*.tar

2. Make test applications in the samples directory by first editing
   the makefile to match your environment
	cd samples
	vi makefile
	< set OS macro to match your UNIX variant & save >
	make

3. Run test applications against a running SOLID Server. You should
