They can connect, but can not do much as a regular user. The main thing you can
do to prevent access to other servers is to disable their ability to use
Computer Management via Group Policy user configuration/administrative
templates/Windows components/Microsoft Management Console/restricted&permitted
snapins. You can also control access to other computers in the domain by using
ipsec policies and modifying the user rights assignments for access this
computer from the network and deny access to this computer form the network. Do
not change those user rights on domain controllers however, or a user may not be
able to logon to the domain. Be careful when applying Group Policy because if
you apply it at the domain level it will also apply to administrators unless you
give them deny permissions to apply in the GPO security policies which is
referred to as "filtering" policy. --- Steve
