The SimpleIPC unit that lhelp uses for IPC creates a named pipe in tmp that corresponds to the the HelpLabel option. Try setting the HelpLabel value to something. I think that it uses a default and lazhelp and lazhelpclient see if there are similarly named files in /tmp/ and delete them and try again. Or as I said set your own name and it will use that instead.
