IIRC, fifo operation needs the cygwin daemon. No sense in implementing mkfifo() if the fifo itself doesn't work. Whatever happened to the daemon work? conrad, oh con-rad...
As cgf asked on 11/4: "Status of cygserver?"
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2002-11/msg00012.html
and on 11/5: "Anyone interested in checking out dgram socket problem (Conrad you still here?)"
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2002-11/msg00018.html
Sadly, the first message elicited no replies; Thomas Pfaff picked up the second one -- but his solution didn't involve the cygserver code.
It seems that Conrad's last messages on any cygwin list were these:
"Re: cygwin_daemon merge"
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2002-q3/msg00474.html
"cygserver usage questions"
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2002-09/msg00196.html
and the astoundingly beautiful
"Re: So now you're a BigShot now? (clarification re. "MinGW Glib")
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg01445.html
Looks like Conrad disappeared circa 9/30/02. Nobody told me to expect company on my vacation; I haven't seem him around these parts...
So I guess this means you're back? Cheers, Nicholas
