Hello All!

I am having a small problem here with named pipes.
When the server and the client app run on the same machine it works great,
but when server and client are on different machines, things start to break
down.

Creating the pipe is done with

 DosCreateNPipe(PipeName,
                Pipe,
                NP_NOWRITEBEHIND OR NP_NOINHERIT OR NP_ACCESS_DUPLEX,
                NP_WAIT OR NP_WMESG OR NP_READMODE_MESSAGE OR $01,
                SizeOf(Messag),
                SizeOf(Messag),
                0);


Opening the pipe from the server is done with

if DosOpen(PipeName,
            PipeHandle,
            Action,     //action taken
            0,
            0,
            OPEN_ACTION_OPEN_IF_EXISTS,
            OPEN_FLAGS_WRITE_THROUGH OR
            OPEN_FLAGS_FAIL_ON_ERROR OR
            OPEN_FLAGS_RANDOM OR
            OPEN_SHARE_DENYNONE OR
            OPEN_ACCESS_READWRITE,
            nil)=0


Anyone ?
