It does not work. I ( well the program ) cannot open the pipe at the other machine.

 PF> A common error is to try to add a computer name in the server process.

I had an example ( Art of Os/2 warp programming ) I used as reference.

The server uses \PIPE\PLAYPM2
The client uses \PIPE\PLAYPM2 or \\name\PIPE\PLAYPM2 depending on the commandline.
