+ <TD>The address of the desired communication socket.
+ The address should be a NULL-terminated string in "proto:address"
+ format:
+ <UL>
+ <LI><CODE>{unix|local}:/path/to/file</CODE> -- A named pipe.
+ <LI><CODE>inet:port@{hostname|ip-address}</CODE> -- An IPV4 socket.

+
+<TD>smfi_setconn will not fail on an invalid address.
+The failure will only be detected in <A href="smfi_main.html">smfi_main</A>.
+Nevertheless, smfi_setconn may fail for other reasons, e.g.,
+due to a lack of memory.

+
+<TD>
+<UL>
+ <LI>If possible, filters should not run as root when communicating
+ over unix/local domain sockets.
+ <LI>Unix/local sockets should have their permissions set to
+ 0600 (read/write permission only for the socket's owner) or
+ 0660 (read/write permission for the socket's owner and group)
+ which is useful if the sendmail RunAsUser option is used.
+ The permissions for a unix/local domain socket are determined as
+ usual by <CODE>umask</CODE>, which should be set to 007 or 077.
+ Note some operating systems (e.g, Solaris) don't use the
+ permissions of the socket. On those systems, place the socket in a
+ protected directory.
