When I add the name of the server to the beginning as | page 680 of the OS/2 Reference Vol.1 says to do, I go from getting a return | value of "0" to a return value of "3" which indicates a bad filename. DosMakeNmPipe only works locally; since you cannot create a named pipe on another server, the API doesn't comprehend UNC notation. Your server app is correct to use /pipe/dfa/config.dfa, sans servername. -- Ben Goetter, microsoft!beng
