Those settings are on workstation side or on server side - they are global or per workstation (maybe I can set those setting only on "students" workstations which security is not so important)? >2. when you do the image also save the password being used when you > shut down the source machine and then reset to that saved password > the machine accounts on restore. (I would go for this one, but be > careful I had it mostly working in my test but sometimes not). So how about this at 13.8 I made clone from mother01 to dauther01...50 after 1.5 week machines dauther20..25 are softwarely destroyed thru students and they are recloning from image of mother01 picked at date 13.8. So now I must setup special software which set machine passwords of dauther20..25 again to 13.8 password of mother01? As for me it seems complicated, but it can be done. >3. rejoin at every installation (unfortunately requires root being > present at restore time). That is an option (last resort), but when it needed rejoning it needed human interaction - it is not necessary always possible.
