I need to create a pool of virtual desktops for users who don't know their passwords. Those users can use smart cards only.
I've deployed my test lab which includes Windows Server 2012 host and RD Web Access & Connection Broker virtual machine. Hardware thin client (Windows 7 Embedded) with attached smart card reader is used as a workplace. I can log in to a pooled desktop by opening RD Web Access web page, clicking on pool name and entering smart card PIN. However, in order to access RD Web Access page I must enter user credentials (i.e. login and password). But users DO NOT know their passwords.
Questions:
1) Is it possible to force RD Web Access site to use credentials of logged in user?
2) Is there any way to skip the second prompt for credentials when user clicks on desktop pool on RDWeb page?
3) Is it possible to access pooled desktops by using standalone Terminal Services client only? Let's say, user logs in to a workstation using his smart card, then RDP client starts automatically using predefined RDP file, gets user credentials from the OS and logs in to a virtual desktop without asking anything else.
