Questions on Office 365 Tenants integration

Brass Contributor

Hi Community,

 

One of our customer has the below environment:

 

Forest A 

 

  • AD
  • Citrix thin clients are installed.
  • Office 365 enabled with Teams licenses (Tenant A)

 

Forest B 

 

  • AD
  • ADFS installed.
  • SSO is enabled.
  • Laptops are provided by vendor and those accounts are hosted in this AD.
  • Office 365 enabled for Exchange mailboxes. (Tenant B)

 

The fact is that the end-users would be using the Citrix Virtual Desktop environment in a full-screen mode. So while Forest B / Tenant B does provide workplace services (like a mailbox) the end-users would not access those directly from their desktop session.

 

Requirement:

 

  • As a Forest B user, the user should be able to log on to their laptop using Forest B’s AD credentials. (As they’ve SSO enabled they can access Tenant B mailboxes without entering the credentials again)
  • Then the user would be able to log on to the Citrix session using Forest A credentials.
  • User would be able to use Teams with Forest A / Tenant A credentials
  • Then the user would be able to run an outlook fat client logging in using Forest B / Tenant B credentials.

 

Question

 

Teams and Outlook clients from different O365 tenants will create some issues and wanted to find out if such a scenario was supported?

 

Any pointers would be of great help.
