Re: Adding LAN support to Subversion

What about adapting ra_svn so that it runs over Windows Named Pipes
(ra_svnnp?) rather than tcp/ip sockets. This should make it work like
SMB/etc. work and if those work on your network then that should too.
I've done a little with named pipes in the past and they seem to be not
that hard to deal with.
