Pipes

WHFC use a pipe on Windows 2000/XP for the communication between WHFC and the port monitor. A pipe is also used on NT, when the terminal server extension is enabled.

On Windows 2000/XP or when terminal server extension on NT is enabled, the pipe is named \\.\pipe\WHFCPIPE and the username is appended to the pipename.

On Windows 95/98 or NT with disabled terminal server extension the OLE interface is used for communication.
