Hi All

Im looking for a way use named pipes between a service app and an app run
when a user logs on and be able to pass string based data, im hoping that
the service can contact the app that is running in the user session and tell
it a path of an app to launch as the logged on user. Does anybody know of an
easy way to do this or have any examples i could look at ? Any help is
greatly appreciated

Many thanks
 
Jarrod,
Have you considered using .NET remoting? Especially in .NET 2.0 (VS 2005),
its now easier to secure & encrypt remoting channels.

I understand the new to .NET 2.0 IpcChannel uses Named Pipes "under the
covers".

Unfortunately I don't have specific links to "named pipes" implementations
in .NET 1.x.
