Compilation:
At this point, you should just be able to type 'make'
and then 'make install'. This will compile and (if
you do an install) install the clients in the directory specified
by you in the Makefile. You may also wish to type
'make install-man' if you wish to install the manual pages.
If you get ANY errors or warnings while compiling this code
(excepting warnings about the function signal), please send
me email with a complete copy of the output of make as well as
a copy of the config.h file.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You do not need to run the fspd process if you only
wish to access existing fsp archives. FSPD is only needed if you
wish to set up and maintain a new archive for use.

fspd can run independently or it can be run under inetd. When
running independently, fspd waits for messages through a UDP
socket whoes port number is defined in the fspd.conf file.
