unix_socket

[Tom Allison <tallison@tacocat.net>]

I'm trying to configure postfix to use the postgres database for lookups.

Since I have a localhost based server, I was going to use unix_sockets.

The postgres docs call for only a /directory.

unix_socket_directory (string)

       Specifies the directory of the Unix-domain socket on which the
   server is to listen for connections from client applications. The
   default is normally /tmp, but can be changed at build time.

The postfix docs call for a /directory/name.

              inet: for TCP connections (default).  Example:
                  hosts = host1.some.domain host2.some.domain
                  hosts = unix:/file/name

--------------
How do I get this sorted out so that I can make a unix connection?
