dovecot - Aug 2005 - auth-master socket creation problem?

I tried activating this code in the example config file and it failed to 
create the socket. You might want to look inti this. Running alpha1.

#auth external {
#  socket connect {
#    master {
#      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
#    }
#  }
#}

That means you want Dovecot to connect to external authentication server
for perform authentication. If you want Dovecot to create the
auth-master for you, use instead this:

  socket listen {
    master {
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
      #mode = 0600
      # Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root)
      #user = 
      #group = 
    }
  }
