Re: How to restrict file access to Domain Computers Only



Thanks to all for the good ideas. I never thought of restricting their
ability to logon from other computers. That sounds like the solution I
want.

I'm not really looking for a foolproof solution. If they are determined, it
will take someone better than I to stop them. But, all email is monitored
and sending files without consent is a releasable offense; remote "personal"
mailboxes are prohibited (and Internet traffic is monitored); and USB
devices do not appear in My Computer or Windows Explorer.

The home laptop, on the other hand, seemed like a huge gaping hole that
needed a plug; even an imperfect one.

Thanks again.

Later.

James
