| 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. |
| |
| To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be |
| called unix. Note that several important services won't work |
| correctly if you say M here and then neglect to load the module. |
| |
| Say Y unless you know what you are doing. |
