I'm running OS X 10.5.5 and Xcode 3.1 with the Xquartz 2.3.0 X window
system. When I run an application that relies DCOP interprocess
communication (e.g., konsole, kdeinit, kate, kile, kdevelop, koctave,
...), I get an alert box with

There was an error setting up inter-process communications for KDE.
The message
  returned by the system was:

  Could not read network connection list.

  Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running!

On 10.5 things _are_ a bit different than on prior OS X versions. I had a similar error recently, but it _was_ due to an ownership issue. The error with bind() is suggestive, though--perhaps something's gone askew that would be cleared by a reboot and flushing of /tmp.

I suspect there isn't much in common with the thread you referenced, since that was several versions of KDE ago.

I flushed out /tmp and rebooted. No joy; same problem. \:-/ I'm at a loss for a way to diagnose the problem.

Thanks

What happens if you run dcopserver manually?
