I'm not the author of cluster-master, so I'll leave it to him/her to 
explain his design decisions. 

However I think that if you change the domain socket "path" to a valid 
named pipe name, it'll just work. Try something like \\.\pipe\mypipename". 
(Note that you have to escape the backslashes in JS, so that'd become 
'\\\\.\\pipe\\mypipename').
