start by getting control out of thier
hands,
Not local logins,
all machines members of the same ad
domain
You then can control everything thru domain group
policy

Subject: [ActiveDir] Revamping AD and
rights
I have a network that consists
of about 65 servers in 9 different states connected by T1's to all the remote
offices, Each office only has a max of 10 people and everything is windows
2000 pro or server. What I am trying to do is setup Group Polices as
well as get AD working better and get back control from the users. I
feel this is going to be a big task but it's all I am going to be doing for
the next 6 months. In the end we would like to push apps to the users as
well as lock down the desktops pretty tight. Is there any books or sites
that can help me get started? I just ordered the Tuna book as well as
his AD book and I have the windows 2000 resource kit but that does not tell
you what works best. I am also setting up a lab with 15 computers so
that I can test things before they goto production. I guess I just need
some direction on best practices for AD, GPO, and making sure everything is
secure. Any help would be great!
Thanks!
