clientutilARGH!  no, definitely not clientutil.c, although you're close:
clientgen.c instead.  you will need to specify \PIPE\WHATEVERNAME not
\PIPE\LANMAN.

my honest opinion is that you are probably better off writing dce/rpc
functions instead of named pipe, i think you'll find that named pipe
functions are a mess.

unless they are very clearly documented, do you have any examples?
