1) Make sure spamd is running:
netstat -an
2) Make sure firewall rules allow the connection.

The error messages aren't a lot of use without also knowing:
- what arguments are you using on the spamc command line?
- where is the spamd instance you're trying to connect to,
i.e. is it on localhost or somewhere else??
- what port is spamd listening on?
I run spamc and spamd on the same machine (i.e. spamd is on localhost)
and default the spamc arguments that describe how it connects to spamd,
so presumably you're doing something different.

This looks like spamc is trying to connect via a network port.

But you are running spamd with a unix socket.
You should either change spamc to use the socket, or change spamd to listen on the
network port.
