Gurus of the list, I work for Software company with a windows 2000 network. I am
hoping you might offer your advice on a issue regarding local admin rights and domain
membership for development employees.
Our development team refuse to work with our policy on purchasing and support of new
desktop computers. Development have been purchasing their own desktop computers,
refusing to use our Exchange Server and not adding their computers to the domain, but
using network resources with their domain accounts. They have full local admin rights
and have run applications on the systems without consideration to other users on the
subnet.
This has now reached a fever pitch level after they expensed new desktop computers, so
tomorrow a meeting has been arranged to discuss what to do. I have been set the task
of explaining why their actions are not acceptable for the rest of the company and why
they should not have access to our network, if they have local admin rights and refuse
to join the domain.
Development claim they do not need to be on the domain and they need local admin
rights to install and run their specific software.
If any of your have experience of this problem or have some observations I would
really appreciate your advice.
Thanks
Techie
