+For each supported `PF_*` protocol family (domain), there is a file `/servers/socket/N`

+`socketpair()` and friends use `_hurd_socket_server` to open them: the latter
+computes the `/servers/socket/N` path, then opens it with `__file_name_lookup`,
+and returns the result. Since those paths are translated (see showtrans on
+`/servers/socket/N`), it's a port to a translator which is returned. Right now

+In case of problems to find out which server is called rpctrace can be of use:
+search for the output `dir_lookup ("servers/socket/N" ...)`
 
 User programs open those files, and use the `socket_create` [[RPC]] to make a
 new socket.  With that socket, they can use the other `socket_*` RPCs and also
