|
| ERROR: nfsend connect() error: No such file or directory!

| ERROR: Can not initialize globals!

The bachend and the frontend communicat over a UNIX socket, which is defined
in nfsen.conf:

#
# nfsend communication socket
# $COMMSOCKET = "$PIDDIR/nfsen.comm";

The default location in in the NfSen POD dir, but can be adjusted as
required. The socket is owned by $USER in group $WWWGROUP with
mode 0660. Depending on what mount flags your volume has, the group
group seamed not be honoured be the OS and the group daemon is used instead.
If so, you need either to change the socket group to $WWWGROUP, or make sure
the socket has mode 0666 ( actually not a very good idea ).
I've not yet figured out, why the group settings are not honoured by the OS.

Hope this help.
