 * see also [ticket:1264#comment:3] for authentication between proxy and server, just specify the username and password in the connection string
 * you can omit the uid and gid and the special user / group "nobody" will be used (posix servers only)
+* this example uses {{{socket-dir=/tmp}}} to ensure that the proxy instances can create their sockets, no matter what user they runs as - this is not always necessary (ie: not usually needed when running as non-root)
 * you can specify the uid and gid using their names (ie: uid="joe", gid="users", posix servers only) or numerical values (ie: 1000)
