IPC styles...

[HIM]

What is the most popular style of IPC for modern 386 un*x's ... I run ISC
386/ix and am starting a client/server system .. I am looking at the
options...

1) Shared memory (seems this is ugly)

2) Mknod and S_IFIFO file types... (simple and easy)

3) UNIX MSG'S as ISC uses them...

4) Sockets (I would use the X-windows tools)....

Any simple examples/opinions welcome, I will summarize for the net if wished.
