What you have described, using named pipes, is a feature of Microsoft Lan Manager 2.0 called Peer Services. This is missing from IBM Lan Server 1.2 but IBM have committed that a future version of their product will include this technology. For now you should buy a copy of Lan Manager 2.0 from Microsoft, or another LM 2.0 vendor. If you wish to use the raw netbios interface, this is available today in IBMs 1.2 Lan Server. You can use this interface to talk between workstations - it is more complex than using named pipes and doesnt have any security for re-connect features, but you can do the job today!
