Are you running SELinux on this machine where it didn't work?
No, it was stock Debian (5.0/lenny IIRC). It worked fine straight from the freshly-installed packages in my test VM, so I'm not certain what went wrong.
Did you look at /var/log/audit/audit.log for clues why?
Nothing jumped out at me from any of the logs; although from past experience it was likely a socket (plus parent directories) permissions+ownership issue. Switching to using a TCP socket was faster than wading through the combinations and permutations on which processes were running as which user and group and convincing the system to really let me keep them as customized instead of as installed. (Which I've done with CentOS [3 IIRC] a number of years ago.)
