Yes we did have Lync but have since moved to S4B. the desktop guys say everyone has been updated but maybe that’s not the case.
Simple question, does Lync support modern auth?

Thijs Lecomte that kind of makes sense. Looking at the S4B in the task manager the running the process for S4B appears to be Lync.exe
However you say S4B supports modern auth but when i look at AzureAD logs it fails MFA as non interactive. The entry says "User did not pass the MFA challenge (non interactive)."
So based on this I would expect S4B to not work yet it does. Kind of contradictory.
