Re: Alert when a new PC joins the domain

[Sorin DANULESCU <sorin_danulescu () yahoo com>]

In a Windows domain, even a user that is not an admin, can join a 
computer to a domain.

The maximum number of computers than can be added by a user is 10 .

Their principle is that if you are a good Active Directory admin, even 
if a user joins a pc into domain, he
cannot do anything dangerous because you have a good security policy and 
group policy.

As a plus, Microsaft is saying that once the computer is in domain... it 
is all yours. So you got control over it.
