Configure the required domain names for remote access hosts
Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later
What it does
Setting the policy specifies the host domain names that are imposed on remote access hosts, and users can't change them. Hosts can be shared only using accounts registered on one of the specified domain names. Setting the policy to an empty list or leaving it unset means hosts can be shared using any account. See also RemoteAccessHostClientDomainList. Note: This setting will override RemoteAccessHostDomain, if present. Example value: my-awesome-domain.com my-auxiliary-domain.com
What it writes

- The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
- Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
