I'm guessing that there are one or two other differences between the
machines. And when you talk about a "Terminal Server"...what is that?
"Broken pipe" on POSIX systems typically corresponds to EPIPE (broken
pipe). A "pipe" in this case is a form of interprocess communication,
not a network communication. What is the application software that you
are using?
