use the Container OU field to specify another OU. You can specify OUs by
separating OU entries with slashes. Specify the lowest-level OU first.
Note: The name of the computer account (also referred to as the machine
account) is the same as the host name of the ReadyNAS (see Configure the
Host Name on page 188).

Select this check box to prevent caching of ADS accounts. Caching can speed
access, but downloading and updating the accounts of a large domain can
also slow the ReadyNAS system. If this check box is clear, then the ReadyNAS
system imports a list of users and groups from the Active Directory server. If
the option is checked, then the ReadyNAS does not import a list of users and
groups from AD.

algorithm is the same on all ReadyNAS systems, you do not need to transfer the mapping between systems
on the network.You cannot convert the maps on a ReadyNAS system from one method to the other.
