With what is included in Windows you need to decompose your
problem. It is not "how to prevent authorized user on unauthorized
machine" but "how to prevent any account on unauthorized machine".
That is, you can use such as IPsec to control what machines can
access the machine with the shares, which combined with NTFS
and share level permissions for user access control does allow
you to make sure that only allowed account may access the shares
from that machine when they are on allowed machines.
However, you probably need to take a step back and ask what
it is that you actually achieve. If they can bring a machine in
and out, then they easily can copy onto a usb device or use an
authorized machine to map a share from their unauthorized
machine and then copy to it via their login at an authorized
machine.
