In need to distinguish a workgroup/single system from a domain member to know if I have to create a local user (net user bla /add) or not. This needs to happen before calling mkpasswd/~group and without knowledge of the current workgroup-/domain-name. Background is that I would like to start sshd with a domain user, but only if the current machine is member of a domain. Depending on that difference I need to use mkpasswd/~group with other parameters (-l vs. -d). So question is more if there is any place on a windows system, a file or a directory or an entry in a file that exists only if that machine is a domain member?
