Hello
I've created RDS farm in high availability mode (rdcb, rdgw, rdweb, session host) all on WS 2019. Everything is working fine, but i dont know how to set pre-auth for my session host collection.Important for me is to .rdp file will work only once, and user cant use it more, so they must download rdp file every time. Can you please help me how to get this work ?
Thank you

Everything is on-prem.
Can I use same scenario for on-prem RDS farm ? Because i have already set application proxy, but it looks like nothing changed for my session collection - from external access - promt password for MFA, next to rdweb (webclient), next after dowloading .rdp file. - pre auth is not set for now.
Is there any solution how to get this work without asking username and password after downloading .rdp file, and of course make this file work only once for all users ?
Hi @crawn23
You can check the properties in your rdp file, to find out why it works once.

Hi, not tested yet.
Problem is that when i download RDP file, i can use same rdp file to login to rds everytime - i want to change this to user must download rdp file every time (means rdp file will work only one).
Hi
I can't find a way to enable it work only once, but after some researching , i think you may need two-factor authentication.

sorry for the misundestanding.
Thanks
