Summary: default socket /var/run/vde.ctl not created on start

Initial Comment:
When I start vde_switch with the following parameters (as root), it doesn't 
start:

vde_switch -t tap22 -d -M /tmp/vde22.mgmt -g kvm

vde_switch: Could not chown socket '': No such file or directory
vde_switch: Could not remove ctl socket '/var/run/vde.ctl': No such file or 
directory

I'm running slackware64 13.1 and vde 2.3.   (Latest SVN).  If I create the dir 
in an init script before it begins, it works correctly.  When I stop the 
process, it removes the dir.  File permissions are fine.  If I designate the -s 
parameter for socket, it is also ok (tested this as a normal user and 
/tmp/vde.ctl).

Hi,
please can you try with the latest svn?
I've just pushed a commit which should fix this regression.

Thank you,

Luca

Message:
Ok this was fault.  Perms on the socket dir were *not* set correctly.  In
my example above, I created a "kvm" group for people who can use this
switch (and my normal user is in it).  The perms set by my init script were
entirely way too permissive.  I changed the perms and it works better now.
