when we fail to find the entry in the commonly accepted files, we query a server over a Unix domain socket on /var/run/nscd/socket. the protocol used here is compatible with glibc's nscd protocol on most systems (all that use 32-bit numbers for all the protocol fields, which appears to be everything but Alpha).
