These people aren't PC installers... They are generally marketing
employees who need a clean slate to test their software. They might do
maybe 10 restores a day? I never know which PC they ghost hence I cant
delete the account. I'm not worried about any malicious intent of these
people.
It simply doesn't make sense that using imagining software you can defeat
the whole purpose of having a computer account password... haha
Well, it sort of does, if you consider that domains have to allow for
non-Windows clients who don't understand the concept of a Windows machine
account... and if you consider that you can secure this, you'd just prefer
not to do so. Like any other software, Windows can be configured to be open
and insecure, depending.
I don't understand why you can't remove the machine account. Removing the
account means they would have to call a domain admin to join the domain.
But don't they already have to do that today anyways, after they reboot?
Do these people need their test machines to be on the production network?
It seems to me in an ideal world, test machines wouldn't be on the
production network but a test lab, or not in the domain.
I think there are some possible solutions.
