first, you have to create the ns.cfg file with:

--------begin of ns.cfg-------
Host="your nameservice ip";
Port=50000;
--------end of ns.cfg-------

after, you launch, in order:
- naming                   <-- used to find a specific service by his name
- log                         <-- centralized log for all service
- time                       <-- centralized time reference
- login                      <-- centralized user account for all shard
- moves                   <-- a shard

of course, some services will create some config file that you have to fill.
you have to put in the ls.txt the moves service host ip like this:

----
Shards = {
 "your moves service host ip", "the name of the shard appears on the client"
};
----
