It will run a Samba AD DC and find the path to sam.ldb, this way it
work on any DC

It then finds the default naming context i.e.
DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com
This way you don't have to enter it.
It then uses this in the searches

It also uses '(objectCategory=person)', this ensures you only get users
and not computers (you did know that a computer is also a user, didn't
you)

It uses the users 'msDS-UserPasswordExpiryTimeComputed' attribute
contents.

If a user doesn't change the password and it expires, it sends a
different email.
