list of user accounts that the job needs to run. For instance, the
SSH daemon job says:
{ name = "sshd";
uid = (import ../system/ids.nix).uids.sshd;
description = "SSH privilege separation user";
home = "/var/empty";
}
The activation script creates the system users/groups and updates
them as well. So a change in the Nix expression can be realised in
/etc/{group,passwd} by running nixos-rebuild.

be able to find the LDAP NSS module, which is normally installed in
Glibc's prefix (under /lib/libnss_ldap...). Of course, we can't do
that; it wouldn't be pure. As a workaround, we simply add nss_ldap
to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH of the nscd daemon, which every other program
uses for lookups. So we don't have to put nss_ldap in the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH of every program.
