My man page for unix sockets says this: If sun_path starts with a zero byte it refers to the abstract namespace maintained by the Unix protocol module. The socket's address in this namespace is given by the rest of the bytes in sun_path. Note that names in the abstract namespace are not zero-terminated. I'll integrate something that can handle this into the new streams architecture; you might not be able to do this in the PHP 4.2, but the release after will have it. Do you know if this is linux-only or do other platforms support it? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-16 21:56:41] [EMAIL PROTECTED] fsockopen can't handle unix sockets created in abstract namespace (unix sockets with the associated pathname starting with '\0'; see UNIX(4) of the 'Linux Programmer's Manual' for details). This bug is 'caused since the implementation of fsockopen in PHP 4.0.6 uses strlcpy to copy from $hostname to unix_addr.sun_path without looking at the first byte of $hostname (fsock.c, line 240). One possible solution would be to change line 240 from strlcpy(unix_addr.sun_path, (*args[0])->value.str.val, sizeof(unix_addr.sun_path)); to pathofs = ((*args[0])->value.str.val[0] ? 0 : 1); strlcpy(unix_addr.sun_path + pathofs, (*args[0])->value.str.val + pathofs, sizeof(unix_addr.sun_path) - pathofs); where pathofs would be of type "size_t". Another solution avoiding the ugly '\0' byte would be to introduce separate scheme prefixes like "file:" and "abstract:" for UNIX domain sockets.
