Different socket types

Hi,

        Some of you may be aware that I've been playing with squid, it the
authentication area. I have just tried to place into squid a socket of
the type AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM.

        When I try and write to this socket using "sendto", an error is
generated errno equals 47 (EAFNOSUPPORT) which means :

        "Address family not supported by protocol family"

        Now what puzzles me is that the calls I am using have been proven
time and time again, because I have created a library of these calls.

        Why will these not work in squid??

Thanks,

Dave.
