It's similar to named pipes but handled differently.  The SMB Messanger
system is documented in the X/Open SMB IPC book which is now *free*
(registration required, etc.).  You can find the X/Open docs here:

IPC Mechanisms for SMB
    ISBN 1-872630-28-6, The Open Group, February 1992.
(Now available online at:

Protocols for X/Open PC Interworking: SMB, Version 2
    ISBN 1-872630-45-6, The Open Group, October 1992.

So, if someone wants to contribute some code...
