Well, this section says only that what I should write in the config
file, not how i should setup all my PCs, and not how to launch tsung in
that case. (but perhaps i don't understand this section...)

So ok, i put <client> and <server> tags in a xml file, but what else ?
What is the next stage ?

sorry, i don't understand anything :-/ (sorry, but i don't know erlang,
and i am a newbee with tsung)

it means that i should launch erlang on each machine ?

And tsung ? When and on which machine should i launch it ? Should i
install it on each machine ?


thanks for your help
