Hey, we're talking windows here! :-) I believe I read somewhere in a metalink note that this functionality was not available on windows until nt4 + sp3 (might have been even later)!

On Unix shared sockets was always the default, I seem to remember from the same note. However, what with me beeing a youngster on this list, and I've got to admit that I'm almost completely on windows (not exactly my personal choice ;-) ), my memories might deceive me.
