Been waiting for this implementation for three years. Woo hoo its party time.

@kmount I told you it was on its way! Just in the nic of time for a new implementation.

Finally! Does this mean I can now authenticate with AAD and automatically be logged into RDWeb as well? That's something that's been annoying me for quite some time, having to log in twice.

So you still have to logon twice.

We really need SSO using Windows Authentication. You can use the Password Authentication as long as your users don't mind putting the My Apps extension on.

But it breaks if they change their password and potential could lock out their account. Hopefully MS will get the message and put the functionality in. Software such as https://www.cybelesoft.com/thinfinity/remote-desktop/server/ and https://www.ericom.com/access-now/html5-rdp-client/ get around the issue for now. Ericom require an addon called Ericom Connect to do SAML logins.
