Only two little notes.

I've found a bit problematic in the past associate invalid shells to
users; so, consider instead of invalid shalles, the use of proper ACL
for the service (eg, AllowedGroups for ssh).

...consider also simply assigning a random password to Administrator
users, so it is enabled and work as expected but nobody, even you, know
the password.
If needed, as 'Domain Admins' user, you can set a password and use it.
