  • Passwords cannot contain the user's account name or parts of the user's full name that exceed two consecutive characters.

    1. English uppercase characters (A through Z)
    2. English lowercase characters (a through z)
    3. Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
    4. Non-alphabetic characters (for example, !, $, #, %)

User clicks “OK” and will be returned to the main sign on screen where they will re-enter their username and new password.

8.

Once the user has successfully entered their credentials, they will be presented with a web page containing all of the apps they have permission to access. User will click once on the app they wish to run. If they click the icon more than once, they will open multiple instances of the application.

9.

Once the user clicks on the application, the browser will download an RDP app to run. The user will start the app (may have to select the appropriate app to run .RDP apps), but because this will be a standard RDP connection, they will be prompted for credentials again.

Tech notes

To suppress the popup from the local PC web browser about the Remote App trust:

  • On a per PC basis: Run gpedit.msc
  • Navigate to: Computer Configuration∖Administrative Templates∖Windows Components∖Remote Desktop Services∖Remote Desktop Connection Client.
  • Modify the “Specify SHA1 thumbprints of certificates representing trusted .rdp publishers” setting and add the thumbprint from the SSL cert for the website.

  • Reload the website and sign in again. The popup will no longer show for any of the apps on our site.
  • This can be done site wide with a GPO. Review this Microsoft site. It was written for 2008 r2, but should work fine with anything above.
