    Home network with thin client(s)?


    So I'm thinking I'd like to delve into home networking ...partly to have all pc's and devices on my home network in a domain that I create, but also to study a bit using Microsofts free 6 month evaluation of WIndows Server 2012 R2. (I'm also in a MS server class, so it will help to get more familiar with it and try different things) . My main pc is fast enough to run it and there won't be many instances of more than one person (me) accessing the network, so it should be good to go. The specs are: Win 10 pro 64 bit, 16 gig DDR3 mem, 250g SSD drive, 1 TB ext HD, and Intel i5 quad core at 2.66mhz.

    Then , I got to thinking how neat and tidy just having a monitor/mouse/keyboard would be for my other areas in the house (and garage) rather than klunky pc's constructed from OLD parts I have,
    and so came to the idea of running them as thin clients intrigued me. I currently don't have the little black boxes you need for them to run that way, so I'll have to research the most economical ones to purchase. ....Then the question is, can MS server 2012 R2 be configured to support thin clients? I'm still a newbie on MS server but have started some the class labs and the options are daunting to say the least lol.

    Thanks for any input!

    :)

    O365 user sign issues on AAD Joined HP Thin Client

    I have an HP T630 Windows 10 Ent. Embedded IoT x64 thin client machine.

    It has been successfully joined to my company AAD.

    However at the sign in window when I choose "other user" and input a test users credentials I receive a message that the account and or password is incorrect.

    I know this is not a network issue, as I have other windows 10 thin client devices (not T630s) on the same network that I can successfully log into with a test user account including the test user account that fails on my T630s.

    This issue is occurring on all my T630's and so far only on my T630's.

    The obvious answer is that there is an issue with the out-of-the box image on these T630's.

    HP does not seem to know what it is, they are working on it but who knows...

    Has anyone experienced this issue before on any windows 10 device?
