Where and when does Python say this to you?

You need to qualify all those names. Normal `import` doesn't dump all
the importee's names into the importer's namespace; it only imports
the name of the module itself. Thus:

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

I would recommend (re-)reading the relevant part of the tutorial:
http://docs.python.org/tutorial/modules.html
