Environment
Resolution
User needs to go to campus and connect their GRCC computer to the GRCC Secure wireless network for 15-30mins so that it can reach out to the Licensing Servers to update.
Note: Student GRCC laptops are not in the AD domain will need to be swapped out at the library or brought to the digital cafe in RJF Hall room 004 for further assistance.
To check if the computer is in the AD domain:
- Right-click This PC in File Explorer
- Click Properties
- The domain should read ad.grcc.edu
Another way to tell is when logging in, it will require username and password. If out of AD, it will show grccloan or Administrator for the user.
