Connecting to Remote Desktops via RDP in a Different Domain and Saving Credentials
So, I’m mainly posting this so I remember it and don’t have to go look it up again the next time I run into this…but if you are here checking this out…maybe this helps you too. :)
Here’s my problem. I have a lab I log into once I establish a VPN connection to the corporate network. I made up a domain for my lab so it’s not part of the current domain my computer is joined to – or any trusted domain. So, every time I log in I’m prompted for credentials even though I’ve checked the box to save credentials.
I just want to click on the RDP link and have it login without me typing the password every time…
Easy enough.
Start local group policy editor, start – run – gpedit.msc
Go to Local Computer Policy –> Computer Configuration –> Administrative Templates –> System –> Credentials Delegation
On every one of the policies that I have ‘enabled’ below, you’ll want to enter the following:
Once your finished – run ‘gupdate /force’ to refresh the policy. You can now login…WITHOUT typing in the password every time!!
