I have a Bastion host and a Linux Ubuntu VM that I installed a desktop on. I want to RDP into the Ubuntu VM with Bastion but Bastion keeps SSH'ing in. How do I configure my VM and Bastion so that Bastion RDP's into the Ubuntu VM instead of SSH?

    @Mark Ashton
    Thank you for your post!

    As of right now, Azure Bastion is currently only available to SSH with when it comes to Linux VMs. I was able to test this out by following our Install and configure Remote Desktop to connect to a Linux VM in Azure documentation, however, I realized this is only available with xrdp.

    If you'd like for this feature of enabling RDP via Azure Bastion into a Linux VM to be implemented, please feel free to upvote/comment on our current User Voice item.
