Unless I'm mistaken, llbd (and glbd) are located in /etc/ncs, not in /etc. They certainly are on our systems, and in the , the ncs directory is present underneith etc as well (not a guarantee of the structure after installation, but a reliable indicator nonetheless). > Am I correct that I need to install the registry & daemon?

Of course, the registry is NCS based, so unless you have a stand-alone machine, you'll probably want it. We run llbd on all nodes.
