Check Text ( C-44678r2_chk )
Verify that any domain systems used to manage Active Directory remotely are used exclusively for managing Active Directory. If domain systems used for managing Active Directory are used for additional functions, this is a finding. If Active Directory is managed with local logons to domain controllers, not remotely, this can be marked NA.

Fix Text (F-40968r2_fix)
Set aside domain systems to manage Active Directory remotely. Ensure they are used only for the purpose of managing Active Directory. Otherwise, use the local domain controller console to manage Active Directory.
