Update/status:

- Bind/Dynamic-DNS service migrated successfully
  *.synchro.net hostnames are resolving and dynamically updated
- GitLab migrated successfully, still on v14.7.2 - new SSH key (sorry)!
  Will upgrade to the latest (v15.x) soon
- DokuWiki/PHP-FPM migrated successfully
  Upgraded to latest PHP-FPM and DokuWiki
- Synchronet migrated successfully
  still resolving lingering broken symlinks and permissions
- proFTPd migrated (ftp.synchro.net) successfully
- SpamAssassin migrated successfully (new spam db)
- CVS/cvsweb/viewcvs *not* migrated and probably not going to bother
  (will need to continue to find and fix any links to cvsweb/viewcvs)

Still yet to do: ZNC, Murmur, automated backups, more stuff I'm forgetting
