What's the error msg from DosOpen? And remember, when opening the pipe from
the client, you need to prepend the pipe name with the machine name.

For example:

On a machine called 'SERVER' you create a pipe called \pipe\ourpipe. To
then access this pipe from another machine, the actual name you pass to
DosOpen is '\\SERVER\pip\ourpipe'.
