My company has an older application that uses RPC Named Pipes to do some
remote communications. We've had difficulty with the limitations of named
pipes and would like to move away from it. I've been asked to investigate
the alternatives.

It seems using RPC with the ncacn_ip_tcp protocol is one possible solution.
Is that the best answer or is there a better alternative?

Thanks.
