Think this was what I was referring to http://www.brianmadden.com/blogs/brianmadden/archive/2012/04/30/the-real-reason-microsoft-windows-rt-devices-won-t-be-able-to-join-ad-domains-hint-ad-is-not-about-systems-management-anymore.aspx
The issue is the session the user uses is domain-joined, not the device itself I am on holiday so haven't had time to read it properly and ensure it said what I was thinking about ---Blackberried -----Original Message----- From: "Michael B.

If a staff member brings in a home laptop and joins it to the domain is it more of a threat or less of a threat than not being in the domain and just plugged into the network. I ask because here after they reboot they will get all the patches, up to date AV software and no-one except IT Staff will be a local admin. Most won't even be able to get to a command prompt. -----Original Message----- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:kurt.b...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 20, 2012 1:17 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: How many in your company can join systems to domain By default yes, unless you turn it off, which, IMHO, is the sane thing to do...
