Trying RDP from Home computer to Work computers. Home (source, Lenovo Tiny) computer, let’s say – Home, target (destination) computer, let’s say – Work (also Work2, ordinary desktop, and Work3, also Lenovo Tiny). (No Answer, just a reply, too long for fitting as reply.) Sure, there is thousands of details involved, absolutely. Even all (I’m aware of) services used is running under system account, related to use (redirection) of smartcard. yes, there is some options to test out more – using on remote side local user, to try remove and create new domain user (on work computer) for same person etc., but … seems to it narrows down to user-something. Something related to particular (Windows domain) user!? What could it be? Started to happen after applying Windows 2004. Then we tried RDP from home to another computer (for same user) and … surprisingly smartcard was identified. Then we tried RDP to computer which didn’t work (as descripted before) from another local computer, fine, redirection did work as expected. Yes, services running, yes, smartcard redirection selected on host etc. Anyway, there wasn’t obvious connections between Windows exact versions on both ends for getting redirection to work. Sure, testing is for us (IT) complicated as we don’t have overlook over home computers. Host (at home) computers vary – Windows 2004, Windows 1909, even older Windows 10 computers, at work all now W2004. On some computers, in other hand, no change, smartcard redirection does work as usual. usual error when card is not inserted pops up. But “some” was many enough to start to investigate what is going on. Till applying Windows 2004 (Windows 10 April 2020 feature Update) everything seems to work ok, but after we upgraded computers at work to 2004 … this approach didn’t work anymore on some of computers. For identification and signing etc., very convenient. So, user enters at home computer smartcard (Estonian ID Card) and need to use it at work. ![]() ![]() One of these is using smartcard redirection. As people start to work more and more at home, we (IT staff from trenches) start to have RDP-related problems.
