	When I called up LANtastic w/ this question, they listed me the
"Checks" that the software comes with.
	Besides remote drives and LPT ports they said they have support
for named pipes for SQL packages. I only know of 1 type of names pipes supported
by OS/2 that have remote capabilities, so I safely assume it's the same thing.

	P.S. Connecting to a remote pipe is done by opening:

	\\ComputerName\PIPE\PipeName

	 or  "\\\\CompName\\PIPE\\PipeName" (for less confusion for C programmers)
