Hello, I installed RDP server and tested everything locally. Seems to work with no issues.My issue lies when I have a user connect to VPN

The VPN tunnel works fine, I am able to reach the corporate network and authenticate
But I get "the digital signature of this RDP File cannot be verified" when I lunch RDP session

Computer is not on corp domain which I asume is the issue. Do I need to manually load a cert?

    Hello @GabrielLebron-7914

    This error occurs when the RDF file automatically uses the Expired certificates, in order to resolve try creating a new certificate.

    Server Manager –> Remote Desktop Services –> Collections –> Tasks –> Edit Deployment Properties

    Then Click the certificates, and create a new certificate.

    then use the newly created certificate, which will resolve the issue.
