not able to connect to WVD from win64 client (latest)
- Jun 14, 2020
Found a solution to the problem, great work done by Micha Wets! https://www.cloud-architect.be/2020/04/19/solution-for-the-0x204-error-when-connecting-to-windows-virtual-desktop-wvd/
benjaminfrei Hi, it maybe a firewall/antivirus issue??? Try temporarily disabling your windows firewall or any antivirus/malware software you have on the windows device.
Also do you have another windows device you can test from??
virtualmanc question: my ADDS setup (cloud only tennant, no on-prem AD) was build with the same top-leveld-domain as the public tenant has (split brain dns). In my understanding this should not be a problem, also when using azure connected enddevices. do you agree or could that be an issue? (nameresolution fails)

benjaminfrei If it was a name resolution problem the web client and the IOS would fail also. Has to be something local on the windows device which is blocking the connection

virtualmanc It seems that the issue occurs on azure-joined machines only. AD or WORKGROUP machines are not affected. I setup another tenant using AzureAD domain equal ADDS Domain. Same issues also when trying to connect on a machine connected to tenant A but using a Remote Desktop connection to tenant B! Can someone clarify this?

virtualmanc Strange thing! Tested on two other clients joined to a (separate) On-Premise AD (previous tests were all conducted on Azure-joined Clients). Same security features in place (Webfilter and Bitdefender AV) and it works! So must be kind of name resolution issue but I^m a little bit confused because according the flow diagrams name resolution also for the target VM (session host) is done azure internally?

benjaminfrei Here is how it works - http://xenithit.blogspot.com/2020/05/active-directory-topologies-support-for.html Make sure your Azure VMs have connectivity to your Domain controllers
" The WVD agent asks the Domain Controller to do a reverse lookup on the users on-prem SID. If this matches then the user object is added to the local Remote Desktop Users group and access is granted onto the Session Host."
