Account Association
The Account Association page allows you to customize account associations when linking UNIX accounts to Active Directory accounts.

You can select it from the matches or click the ... option to browse Active Directory for a different account. The tool bar filter buttons allow you to filter out matched items from the list. With the filter enabled, items disappear from the list as you match the UNIX information to Active Directory accounts.
You can click the tool bar button to permanently remove the selected item from the list. Click the tool bar button to permanently remove all visible items from the list.
