Yes, that's more or less correct.  Except that Steps 2 & 3 can run at the
same time (though, perhaps they do not with the bizarre output-spec
business, I don't know)

The "data channel" bit is a little misleading.  Yes, there are 3 different
streams, "stdin" "stdout" and "stderr" in the program that is executed on
the remote server.

However, on the caller's side, the rexec() API will combine the first two
("stdin" "stdout") into a single socket.  And, it will also optionally
combine the 3rd into that socket as well.   Sorry, I didn't explain this
very thoroughly in the previous message.

Yeah...  I'll post them on RPG400-L, since they're RPG and we're going a
bit beyond the CL programming that this thread started with :)
