Hi,

I need to run a postgresql server with multiple UNIX-domain
sockets, i.e. not just the one in /tmp. Is that possible
at all? According to the documentation, the syntax of
unix_socket_directory doesn't seem to allow it.

(I had the idea to create hardlinks to the socket in /tmp,
but unfortunately /tmp is a separate file system on a
memory disk, so it's not possible to create hardlinks to
somewhere else.)

Best regards
Oliver
