Hi.
The short answer is: you can't. Named pipes on Unix are purely process to process IPC. No networking allowed. Use a BSD (TCP/IP) socket instead. Dave |
Unless you do the networking stuff in another layer that can present your network shares are regular elements in your fs, for example like NFS or CIFS do.
