| If you say Y here, you will include support for Unix domain sockets; |
| sockets are the standard Unix mechanism for establishing and |
| accessing network connections. Many commonly used programs such as |
| the X Window system and syslog use these sockets even if your |
| machine is not connected to any network. Unless you are working on |
| an embedded system or something similar, you therefore definitely |
| want to say Y here. |

| Say Y unless you know what you are doing. |
