    Cloning any active Windows environment to another physical or virtual machine opens up the possibility of GUID duplication issues. Just keep that in mind. I don't recall if this is supported, officially, but a new, random GUID for each cloned instance would be needed. It's been a while since I ran into this in customer environments.

        If it were a full blown active directory domain controller in cloud and there's a VPN to on premise you could simply stand up an on premise domain controller.
