_popen gives no output when run from a remote session

The following code when compiled -mno-cygwin doesn't work as expected from a
remote telnet session, but works correctly when on the local machine:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
  char psBuffer[128];
  FILE *output;

  if ((output = _popen("nm a.exe", "r")) == NULL ) exit(1);
  while(!feof(output))
    if(fgets(psBuffer, 128, output) != NULL) printf(psBuffer);
  printf( "\nProcess returned %d\n", _pclose( output ) );
  return 0;
}

Is this a problem with the inetd?

I'm using the latest everything (as of today) on an NT 4.0 Workstation SP5.

Help!
