The right way to do it is to ask your workplace network admin if company policy allows
connection to a home network. If so, then to make it work we will have to do several
things:
1. When you get home, you will start the computer and log onto the local computer
using a local user acount. This is different from at work, where you log onto the
Domain (not the computer) using a Domain User account. The easy but less secure
way to accomplish this is to give you a local account that has administrative privilges
on the local computer.
2. When you get to work, you will have to rejoin the Domain, and to do that your
admin will have to either (a) add your Domain user acount to the group that is allowed
to perfom the act of joining computers to the Domain, or (b) supply you with the
User Account and Password for an account that is allowed to add computers to the
Domain. Once the computer is back on the Domain, then you would log into the Domain
normally.
There are several programs available for people that have to hook up to several networks:
GlobeSoft Multinetwork Manager v7
Mobile NetSwitch
NetSwitcher
