    It is strange behaviour… a process unlinks a socket-file, which does not belong to him, only the name is the same

    That is what I would expect it to do actually. I would expect it to close the socket it has open and the delete (unlink) it by name.

      I expect, it deletes the socket, which on which the process is listening. what if i rename the socket (for some reason). Then the socketfile should be deleted also.

        Directory operations like unlinking (deletion) traditionally work via paths, not open file handles.
