One user recently sent in a bug report on precisely this problem. The report,
was not against the code, but against the documentation, which is admittedly
a bit weak in this area. As a result, I added his comments and his example
to the manual. If I remember right it was under Client Run Job Before, but I
am not sure. I'm not completely sure if his Client was a Windows machine or
not, or even if Windows has FIFOs, which may be a problem. If you are
cleaver, you can probably find the bug report and his email address in the
bugs database ... :-)
