All accounts created with system-useradd are in ldap. I see two human 
accounts which are in passwd:

   dcrossland
   asharma

These should either be deleted, or moved to ldap...

...or we could do the opposite and migrate all accounts to passwd to get 
rid of ldap for good. I'd be in favor if someone volunteers to write a 
migration script and test it carefully.

For the time being, a big +1 from me on cleaning up inactive accounts 
with system-userdel, as soon as is convenient to Srevin. In case anyone 
complains, it's easy to revert.

system-userdel moves the homes to /home/_disabled/

I don't mind keeping around shell accounts of old friends, as long as 
they're well behaved.

I've been hosting my personal website and email on sunjammer, which 
keeps me motivated to do regular maintenance :-)
