Well, actually, I intended my question to be "Can MS-DOS computers act
as *application* servers to client programs, where both client and server
are running under an unmodified version of LAN manager."  So would it be
possible to set up an MS-DOS application that accepts named pipe requests
from either OS/2 or MS-DOS client programs?
