Join Domain from Remote

First of all I don't know if I am in the right forum, however, here my
question. I have a network with 4 servers in the Head Office of which one is
a Terminal Server. Now I have to setup the users in an office away from the
Head Office, however, only a few Workstations are already joined to the
Domain. Is it possible that I can join the Workstations which are not joined
to the Domain yet to the Domain remotly and how do I do that.

Thanks

Hello Somchai,

Make sure that they have the correct ip settings from your domain like the
other hosts and you can add them to the domain like if they are in the main
office. My computer properties, Netwrok identification, properties and choose
Member of, fill in your domain and you are requested for username and password
with an account that is allowed to join them.

Best regards

Perhaps OT, but if you don't have a fast VPN or leased line connection
between the offices (ideally with a local DC/GC/DNS server), what's the
perceived advantage of joining them to the domain? Remote management will be
a nightmare, group policies won't apply properly, and since they're using
TS, it's not going to affect their daily work very much if you treat the
workstations as you would dumb terminals.
