First, i have to appologize. I haven't seen Peter's (<peter@bieringer.de>)
message on 5 of Jan. describing the same situation when Unix Domain
sockets were not complied into the kernel..:) :)

Actually it was the default in my source too and after a microsecond
of thought i decided that whoever choosed to put it to "NO" knew what he
was doing...I agree with you that it might be better to have them
included by default.

FYI, I got the tar.gz from funet, if that matters...
