proxy-address used to set an unix socket

[Olivier Le Cam]

Hi -

Using the "proxy-address" option to provide an unix socket the client can bind to works just fine, except that:

1. The socket file is created with restricted rights (srwxr-xr-x). It prevents any (non-root) users to bind to which is a bit annoying. I can manage a "chmod 777" from my init script to correct this but I wonder if it is really the best way to deal with this problem.

2. The socket file is not removed when mysql-proxy exits which must be manually removed before starting again mysql-proxy. Shouldn't it be rm'ed by mysql-proxy itself at exit to get rid of that problem?

Thanks in anticipation for your comments and for that really great software!
