where i work today we noticed some very strange behaviour on redhat 6.2

Gnome went down (suprise surprise) and took X with it, after which init was 
screwed, and some of the exe's in /sbin no longer worked, even after reboot. 
took much fudging to get the machine up again.

this socket problem does not look like a user space thing to me either.
