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

16	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
17	  called unix.  Note that several important services won't work
18	  correctly if you say M here and then neglect to load the module.

20	  Say Y unless you know what you are doing.
