/**

 * Interface for clients consuming the dsml service.  Note that this remote

 * interface must be generated to communicate via soap with binding properties

 * of 'document' and encoding as 'literal'.  This is done with the JBroker

 * tool, rmi2soap:

 * rmi2soap -document -literal com.novell.services.dsml.DsmlClient

 *

 * Also note that this interface differs from the orginal interface that

 * generates the DSML service.  It differs because the string method is not

 * originally specified.  However, because 'document' and 'literal' are

 * specified, both interfaces can be used for the service.
