We have a situation where we contract PT and Special Ed staff from an outsourced company. In the past we deny their users who have their company owned laptops access to our network resources. So they cannot print or access our web based services. Sometimes we issue laptops to certain members of their staff our laptops so only a few can print (for IEP and Special Ed legal reasons).
Now an agreement was made behind the scenes, that all the sudden we have to Image and prep Their laptops with our Licensed images to allow their laptops to gain access to our network to print and use our Educational Software and web services.
So far every machine we've imaged/prepped has come up with the Activate Windows message in the background image.
Our own systems don't do this. Just theirs.
Is it legal for one company to use another company's license? We have and maintain a Volume license system with Microsoft. I feel that there is a conflict of interest/ownership.
Any advice that I can pass along to our Boss's would be great.
Thanks,
