+This directory contains the driver program that links the various
+services together, either statically or dynamically, to form complete
+server programs.
+
+You can configure the following ACE network services into the driver
+program by changing how the svc.conf file is setup:
+
+	. Logger -- Controls the output of all services that are
+	  invoked along with the Logger service. Please see the README
+	  file in /netsvcs/lib for details on how to control the output.
+
+	. [Thr_]Server_Logging_Handler.* -- Implements server portion
+	  of the ACE distributed logging service.  Both multi-threaded
+	  and single-threaded implementations are provided.
+
+	. Client_Logging_Handler.* -- Implements the client portion
+	  of the ACE distributed logging service.  Note that you 
+          generally will run a netsvc daemon that's configured with
+          *either* the server portion of the logging service or the
+          client portion of the logging service, but not both in
+          the same process.  In otherwords, you'll need to have
+          separate svc.conf files to configure the client logging process
+          and the server logging process indepedently.
+
+	. Name_Handler.* -- Implements a distributed name service that
+	  allows applications to bind, find, and unbind names in
+	  a distributed system.
+
+	. Token_Handler.* -- Implements a distributed token service
+	  that allows distributed applications to acquire and release 
+	  locks in a distributed system.
+
+	. Time_Handler.* -- Implements a distributed time service that
+	  allows distributed applications to synchronize their
+	  time.
