/*
   The protocol used between the nslcd client and server is a simple binary
   protocol. It is request/response based where the client initiates a
   connection, does a single request and closes the connection again. Any
   mangled or not understood messages will be silently ignored by the server.

   A request looks like:
     int32 NSLCD_VERSION
     int32 NSLCD_ACTION_*
     [request parameters if any]
   A response looks like:
     int32 NSLCD_VERSION
     int32 NSLCD_ACTION_* (the original request type)
     [result(s)]
     NSLCD_RESULT_END
   A result looks like:
     int32 NSLCD_RESULT_SUCCESS
     [result value(s)]
   If a response would return multiple values (e.g. for NSLCD_ACTION_*_ALL
   functions) each return value will be preceded by a NSLCD_RESULT_SUCCESS
   value. After the last returned result the server sends
   NSLCD_RESULT_END. If some error occurs the server terminates the
   connection to signal an error condition (breaking the protocol).

   These are the available data types:
     INT32  - 32-bit integer value
     TYPE   - a typed field that is transferred using sizeof()
     STRING - a string length (32bit) followed by the string value (not
              null-terminted) the string itself is assumed to be UTF-8
     STRINGLIST - a 32-bit number noting the number of strings followed by
                  the strings one at a time

   Compound datatypes (such as PASSWD) are defined below as a combination of
   the above types. They are defined as macros so they can be expanded to
   code later on.

   The protocol uses host-byte order for all types (except where the normal
   value in-memory is already in network-byte order like with some
   addresses). This simple protocol makes it easy to support diffenrent NSS
   implementations.
