I setup Remote Desktop Connection and the computer says: AzureAD\username already has access:
Very good, let's try to connect using AzureAD\username:
Unfortunately it says:
Your credential did not work. Remote machine is AAD joined. If you are signing in to your work account, try using your work email address.
Of course it didn't work. Any idea?
To successfully connect to an AzureAD joined computer using Remote Desktop, you will need to first save your connection settings to a .rdp file.
To do this, open the Remote Desktop Connection program, enter the IP Address or computer name, then click the "Save As" button at the bottom of the screen. Save it someplace convenient, since we'll need to edit this file by hand.
Next, Right-Click the saved .rdp file and open with Notepad.
Go to the very bottom of the file, add the following lines:
enablecredsspsupport:i:0
authentication level:i:2
Save the file and close.
Now, try double clicking the modified .rdp file and login using the format:
AzureAD\YourFullUsername
Screenshots, original information and credit go to bradleyschacht.com
from your window, it doesn't seem like you logged in with an azuread account, try with francescomantovani@yourazureaddomain.com as a username?
as per here:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/client-management/connect-to-remote-aadj-pc
When you connect to the remote PC, enter your account name in this format: AzureAD UPN. The local PC must either be domain-joined or Azure AD-joined. The local PC and remote PC must be in the same Azure AD tenant.
As long as RDP is enabled on the remote machine and the user you are trying to logon is with authorized, it should work.
The Azure Active Directory username is not exactly clear though.
Joined computer via 'FirstName@domain.com', an Azure Active Directory domain account.
Computer shows 'AzureAD\FirstNameLastName' as authorized for RDP since it's an administrator account.
Must use 'AzureAD\FirstName@domain.com' for RDP username.
No other settings changes needed, no manual editing of RDP file just had to get the username right.
For some reason the old remote desktop connection application was throwing the same error. I tried connecting through new remote desktop application( included in windows 10 ), it connected without any problem.
The issue is related to the password, which we have set at the time of the creation of VM.
That password doesn't meet the complexity criteria that we didn't get informed about while setting the username & password firstly. Therefore we need to reset the password.
1). click on created VM --> choose reset Password from the side menu.
2). This time they will tell us about constraints for setting the password.
3). Choose the appropriate password.
4). Now login via this format as below:
username : <publicIpOfVM>/<username>
password: newPassword
