A good thought, but unfortunately it won't work...

	$ uname -s
	CYGWIN_NT-5.0
	$ mknod test p
	mknod: `test': Function not implemented

Has anyone tried using cygwin? My guess is that this would work there. (URL Escapes me but I could find it if there's interest)

For those that don't know, cygwin is a GNU environment built to run in = MS.
They've got everything from gawk to XFree86 to Gnome. (useable under = most
flavors of windows) I'm sure mkfifo is there.. if netcat isn't, I could give an example that works using rsh. (or ssh)

not used is extremely reliable, because it doesn't make any problems. Please, note that I'm not biased. I don't care what OS I am working on, as long as it looks and smells like Unix.
