Do these users have administrative control (domain account is a local admin)
of their desktops? If so, they can create their own accounts without asking.

I have a few users who insist that they need a local account on their
domain laptops.  I am trying to explain to them that their password will
cache and allow them to login while not on the network.  It also looks like
local accounts bypass a lot of our group policy rules that we have put in
place and I do not want to have to manage local policies as well.  Can
anyone give me some more good reasons why it is bad to use a local account
instead of a domain account.

Thanks!
