ALAIN_CH69475as far as I know, the rds gateway is unable to support fido authentication.
If you just connect to the farm through the broker, that fido authentication should be fine.
fido is also only working with windows server 2022 and the client must be a current windows 10 or 11.
And in in the rdp client you need to select "WebAuthn (Windows Hello or Security Key)".
Hi 1993Nik
Yes, you are right, and that is my problem.
The direct connection to the host works.
But the connection to the gateway does not.
The server is Windows Server 2022 21H2 and the client is Windows 11.I have overlooked something, but unfortunately I can't find it.
Jochen81 as I mentioned, there are only two options to connect to your rds hosts with fido:
- connect through your rds broker to your session host
- connect directly to your session host
as far as I know it is not possible to connect through a rds gateway server to a session host with fido. the gateway does not accept fido authentication.
What is the purpose of your rds gateway? is the gateway published in the internet?
It seems like you are also from germany, if you want we can have a quick call about your problem. Just send me a private message, then we can exchange contact details.

AlainALAIN_CH69475the broker and the rds session hast must be at least windows server 2022.
you can perform an inplace upgrade, you should disable any antivirus software before the upgrade.
