Yes, and I'm wondering whether it is normal or not, that the file will
be created the first time I run the script but will never be deleted.

I tried to close the UNIXServer and the Socket it returns, but the
problem persists.

$path= "/tmp/ruby-socket-file"
 
sThread = Thread.start{
  sock = UNIXServer.open($path)
  s1 = sock.accept
  p s1.recvfrom(124)
  s1.close
  sock.close
}
 
client = UNIXSocket.open($path);
client.send("hello",0)
client.close

sThread.join

thanks
