Hi,
The goal is for users logging in via MS Entra (SAML authentication) who are linked to domain users (Authentication Connector) to be able to connect to the server using RDP without entering a password.

The current issue is that after creating a session and opening the RDP login window, Netwrix prompts for the password again.

We are using the default policy “Add Requester to Local Administrators” to create the session.

Thanks

For Requester Accounts Password is not known to NPS only the user, hence password needs to be entered.

Kindly use managed accounts or activity tokens in activities.

Kindly refer Activities Page

When using Requester login, in order to connect to the Target Resource, NPS needs to ask the user for the password in order to login.

NPS does not know the user’s password so it has no way to answer the challenge from the target resource.

If you want to be able to login without a password challenge then you would need to use a Managed account or Activity Token where NPS would know the password.

NPS will also challenge for the password if the “Auto-Connect to Proxy” is not enabled.
