I have xend configured to use unix domain socket for Xen API server with
no authentication. In xend-config.sxp:
(xen-api-server ((unix none)))
The socket is restricted to root via file permissions. In xm-config.xml
I have xm configured to use the socket
<server type='Xen-API'
uri='httpu:///var/run/xend/xen-api.sock' />
