Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains the users shown in the following table.

You have a computer named Computer1 that runs Windows 10 and is in a workgroup.
A local standard user on Computer1 named User1 joins the computer to the domain and uses the credentials of User2 when prompted.
You need to ensure that you can rename Computer1 as Computer33.
Solution: You use the credentials of User2 on Computer1.
Does this meet the goal?

A. Yes
B. No

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Renaming a domain-joined computer will also rename the computer account in the domain. To do this, you need domain administrator privileges.
User2 is a domain user, not an administrator. Use User3's credentials instead.

Selected Answer: A

These two series of questions were interesting. Both are YES. Being brief, local administrator won't be able to change the name of a domain computer once it was added to the domain. And YES, a domain user (domain users group) can rename a computador.

This answer is NO Forget what I said about both being right. Actually the next series of three questions are YES (User3), NO (User2) and NO (User4). You won't be able to reach System Properties to modify the name of the PC with a Domain Users member. That only a domain administrator job, not even Server Operator. There is a magic here: You can user a local admin account + domain users account to join and rename the computer, but this is out question.

Looks like its NO guys, remember user1 is a standard user not a local administrator. So when I try to join the PC to the domain, it doesn't give me an option to choose domain/other user. If user1 was a local admin then it was going to be Yes. its only Standrd domain users that can add the pc to the domain not STD local user

User1 joins the computer to the domain and uses the credentials of User2 when prompted should be impossible, it should use User3 that has administrator rights
