There is no /var/run/nscd in nscd.conf but:

-- Logs begin at Thu, 2012-11-08 21:13:36 CET, end at Thu, 2012-11-08
21:15:11 CET. --
Jan 08 19:23:30 localhost.localdomain nscd[2063]: 2063
/var/run/nscd/socket: No such file or directory
Jan 08 19:23:30 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: nscd.service never
wrote its PID file. Failing.

Indeed it's a tmpfs. Obviously this directory exists on my laptop, don't
know how but on my freshly installed cauldron it does not.

I suspect /var/run/nscd/ is the path also used by glibc to find the nsdc
socket.
There is no option in nscd.conf to change it according man page.

I just revert my changes, feel free to fix.
