I had a vaguely similar problem with my netpipes package (
http://www.purplefrog.com/~thoth/netpipes/ ) and they recommended I
upgrade to 2.0.29 with ISS patches. I don't know if that applies to
your problem as well.
BTW, with netpipes your programs would be (approximately, and ignoring
the security problems...):
server$ faucet 3000 -io sh -c 'cat `cat`'
client$ echo /file/name | hose server 3000 -slave > output
