Instant Messaging System scans primary domain only?

Hi

Attempting to write a distributed (not a client/server chat) IMS using mailslots I encountered the problem of having each IMS instance autodetect instances running on remote hosts. Seems like hosts are aware of instances on primary domain hosts but are not able to 'see' hosts beyond this point somewhere else on the domain.
Should I ignore mailslots and use some other component? How can I fix this problem?

Thanks!
