*Description:* Enable {{ site.product.short_name }} to collect UNIX credential
information (that is, the `PID`, user ID, and group of the sender process)
for messages received using UNIX domain sockets. Available only in

The `pass-unix-credentials()` option has been deprecated in {{ site.product.short_name }} 3.35 and later versions. Use the `so-passcred()` option.
