/*
   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)]
     INT32  NSLCD_RESULT_END
   A single result entry looks like:
     INT32  NSLCD_RESULT_BEGIN
     [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_BEGIN
   value. After the last returned result the server sends
   NSLCD_RESULT_END. If some error occurs (e.g. LDAP server unavailable,
   error in the request, etc) the server terminates the connection to signal
   an error condition (breaking the protocol).

   These are the available basic 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

   Furthermore the ADDRESS compound data type is defined as:
     INT32  type of address: e.g. AF_INET or AF_INET6
     INT32  lenght of address
     RAW    the address itself in network byte order
   With the ADDRESSLIST using the same construct as with STRINGLIST.

   The protocol uses host-byte order for all types (except in the raw
   address above).
