Are you sure this is accurate? I have a regular user which I use for
most things and his account flags look like this:
sambaAcctFlags: [U          ]

According to your diagram here, that is a workstation account. If it is
indeed accurate then we may have an smbldap script bug on our hands, as
this is the tool I use to add users.  Hmm... I'm noticeing this flag on
all of them now.  Wait... let me check a workstation...
OK, my workstations are flagged thus:
sambaAcctFlags: [W          ]

There is nothing defined for W below:

| [NDHT U M W SLKI]
| ||||| | | | |||
| ||||| | | | ||-> Domain trust account)
| ||||| | | | |->
| ||||| | | |->
| ||||| | |-> Server trust account
| ||||| |-> Workstation account
| |||||->
| ||||-> User account
| |||->
| ||-> Home dir required
| |-> Disabled
| ->
|
| And the following aren't listed in your group of flags:
| X -> password does not expire

Hmmm... I wonder if there is a way to check the Windows docs instead?
