NAME
    Net::Server::Proto::UNIX - Net::Server UNIX protocol.

SYNOPSIS
    See Net::Server::Proto.

DESCRIPTION
    Protocol module for Net::Server. This module implements the UNIX SOCK_STREAM socket type. See
    Net::Server::Proto.

    Any sockets created during startup will be chown'ed to the user and group specified in the
    startup arguments.

PARAMETERS
    The following parameters may be specified in addition to normal command line parameters for a
    Net::Server. See Net::Server for more information on reading arguments.

    unix_type
        Can be either SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM (default is SOCK_STREAM). This can also be passed on
        the port line (see Net::Server::Proto).

        However, this method is deprecated. If you want SOCK_STREAM - just use proto UNIX without
        any other arguments. If you'd like SOCK_DGRAM, use the new proto UNIXDGRAM.

METHODS
    NS_unix_path/NS_unix_type
        In addition to the standard NS_ methods of Net::Server::Proto classes, the UNIX types also
        have legacy calls to NS_unix_path and NS_unix_type.

        Since version 2.000, NS_unix_path is simply an alias to NS_port. NS_unix_type is now
        redundant with NS_proto.

        These methods were missing between version 2.000 and 2.003 but have been returned as legacy
        bridges.
