[tech] Samba/LDAP migration

[David Adam]

There are still some loose ends from the LDAP to Samba migration needing 
to be tidied up. LDAP is still in NSS on Mussel and Mooneye until these 
can all be fixed.

* flame - the flame user (UID 10026) did not get migrated into Active 
  Directory. As flame runs only on Mooneye and out of local storage, I've 
  created a local user instead. There's some stuff in /services/flame but 
  it's all Very Old.

* Users with UID < 1000 don't work properly on systems using Winbind, 
  which is all of them except Motsugo. These accounts should ideally be 
  renumbered to sensible UIDs.

I've also upgraded the DC to 4.8.2 and removed and rejoined Maaxen from 
the domain. The rejoin failed every time I tried last night and then 
worked today?!
