A noob asks: Configuring Simpapp to handle workstation clients.

Question

Dear accomplished Tuxedians,
I'm trying to educate myself on Tuxedo 8.1 on Windows XP SP2, and so far
so good. However, I've struck a question that the docs cannot answer.
I've been able to run the simpapp application, and wondered how I could
setup the example to run with a workstation client instead of a native one.
So far I have built the workstation client with "buildclient -w", and
understand that I need to set the WSNADDR environment variable ... and
around here I run out of understanding.
My humble questions to you all are ...
1) What changes need I make to my 'server side' UBBSIMPLE configuration?
2) After changes are made, and I 'tmboot -y' again will that start the
WSL and WSHs that I need?
3) ... or do I need to run 'tlisten' seperately, and if so is tlisten
the WSH or WSL?
4) When establishing the workstation side, what should the TUXCONFIG
look like there?
All clues welcomed,
M.

Thanks for replying Roopesh, predictably I have some further questioning
for you ...

--include WSL in ubbsimple .I took a good stab at this, and it's not worked for me, as my
simpapp.exe won't tmboot any more...
Booting admin processes ...
exec DBBL -A :
on simple -> process id=2636 ... Started.
exec BBL -A :
on simple -> process id=3644 ... Started.
Booting server processes ...
exec simpserv -A :
on simple -> Failed.
exec WSL -A //ludwig:45000 -M 5 -x 10 :
on simple -> Failed.
2 processes started.My ubbsimple is attached.
2) After changes are made, and I 'tmboot -y' again will that start the WSL and WSHs that I need?
--yes
3) ... or do I need to run 'tlisten' seperately, and if so is tlisten the WSH or WSL?
--you dont need tlisten .Splendid. Is that because of the existing tlisten/slisten, listening on
port 3050 that gets setup at install-time?
4) When establishing the workstation side, what should the TUXCONFIG look like there?
--tuxconfig not needed at workstation side.Many thanks,
M.
