Well, in my case, the system process is the only one having access to 
the network and provides network "connections" and events to all user 
processes. Sending signals to user processes is a bad choice (although 
this is what I'm doing right now), because it breaks the privacy between 
user processes.

All is not lost. User processes do not necessarily have to allocate a 
well known name, as long as it is possible to export a method from a 
numeric bus address. Is this possible? Example?

Thx,
Pol
