I think you're having a bit of trouble with Python's namespaces. doing
"import socket" does not give you all of the socket module's stuff in
your current namespace. For that, you do "from socket import *", but
that's bad form because you can end up clobbering a lot of stuff.
There's two ways to do it:


import socket
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_UNIX, socket.SOCK_STREAM)

from socket import socket, AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM
sock = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM)
