[ZendTo] Fill in organization from AD attribute

[Ionescu Gigel]

Hello,
Thanks for the answer Jules, I changed auth to AD and now is better, things
are working as expected.
I would not like to let people change this attribute in the UI, setting the
html attribute "disabled" to this field would work?
Regards,
Bogdan
