Windows Domain Question

All,

In light of the many issues there have been in the past few months with
viruses and patches of certain operating systems, our organization has
decided to evaluate and implement solutions that are easily maintained and
insure that networked systems are secure and virus free.  One of the
proposed solutions is to require that our students connect to a student
domain while on the network so that we can update their antivirus product,
provided by us, as well as their operating system.  Has anyone on here went
down that path to resolve these issue?  If so, what challenges did you have
and did it accomplish the goals you had?  I know one main hurdle that we
have to overcome is the issue of privacy.

Thanks,

Travis Niedens
