| you must start a server. In some situations, listed below, the server tools |
| start a server for you automatically. For more information on which test server |
| will start, refer to the list of related topics at the end of this topic.</div><div class="p"><strong id="twsrtins_wst__twsrtins_prereq"><a name="twsrtins_wst__twsrtins_prereq"><!-- --></a>Prerequisites:</strong><ul><li id="twsrtins_wst__twsrtins_prereq_li1"><a name="twsrtins_wst__twsrtins_prereq_li1"><!-- --></a><a href="twcrtins.html">Create a server.</a></li> |
