"Unix sockets" is sometimes understood to refer to something else: sockets in the AF_UNIX address family, rather than AF_INET. The contact points for Unix sockets are not network addresses, but rather paths in the file system, often placed in /tmp or /var/tmp by convention. A pair of unnamed, connected sockets can also be created with the socketpair function. _______________________________________________ Roundcube Users mailing list users@lists.roundcube.net http://lists.roundcube.net/mailman/listinfo/users
