OVERVIEW OF THE SKIPPY! SAMPLE 
============================= 
 
SKIPPY! is a COM based Internet Location Services application that allows 
the user to query an ILS server for users and user information.  It  
demonstrates filtering the server results, creation of user objects and  
registration of users on a server. 
 
 
BUILDING THE SKIPPY! SAMPLE 
============================= 
 
Building the sample application requires VC++ Version 5.0 or later. 
 
To build the sample from Visual C++, open the project makefile (skippy.mak)  
as a Microsoft VC++ project, and build as usual.  The NetMeeting SDK  
directories must be added to your VC++ environment. 
 
If your DOS environment is correctly configured, you can build the sample 
from the command line by typing "nmake".  The DOS path, include and lib 
environment variables must point to the VC installation and the  
NetMeeting SDK directories. 
 
 
Notes:  
 
1) To run the SKIPPY! sample you do not need to have Microsoft  
   NetMeeting installed but you must install the ILS client support 
   DLLs.  To do this, go to the REISTRB directory and run the ilsinst.exe  
   utility.   
 
2) User objects created on a server by this application will appear 
   in a NetMeeting directory listing for that server but NetMeeting 
   users will not be able to connect to them. 
 
3) You do not need to specify IP address in the user information dialog. 
   If you do not, the IP address for your machine will be used.  If you 
   do, the IP Address you provide will be used. 
 
4) User objects obtained via a call to EnumUsers cannot be used in calls to  
   EnumProtocols.  To work around this issue, call EnumUserNames and then 
   GetUser on each name.
