Here's how the IDL maps to the Pex::NDS functions:

#    [in] [unique] [string] wchar_t * arg_00,
     Pex::NDR::Long(int(rand(0xffffffff))).
     Pex::NDR::UnicodeConformantVaryingString('').
#    [in] [string] wchar_t * arg_01,
     Pex::NDR::UnicodeConformantVaryingStringPreBuilt($path).
#    [out] [size_is(arg_03)] char * arg_02 <- out parameters are not sent in the
request
#    [in] [range(0, 64000)] long arg_03,
     Pex::NDR::Long(int(rand(250)+1)).
#    [in] [string] wchar_t * arg_04,
     Pex::NDR::UnicodeConformantVaryingStringPreBuilt( "\xeb\x02\x00\x00").
#    [in,out] long * arg_05,
     Pex::NDR::Long(int(rand(250)+1)).
#    [in] long arg_06
     Pex::NDR::Long(0);


arg_00 is encoded with a Long followed by UnicodeConformantVaryingString. You
need the long because of the [unique] pointer modifier.

arg_02 is not included in the request, because it's an ouput parameter. It's
sent in the reply from the server.

The rest of the arguments are obvious.
