      Does it call a Windows native command or use some other method?

      The legacy client required that netdom.exe exist in a path designated in the .ini , which then also required pulling netdom.exe from the waik.

        Native Windows API is used (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa370675(v=vs.85).aspx). Netdom is not required.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

          Excellent. Thank you! It’s good to know that a netdom pull is no longer required.
