Windows 2016 Restrict delegation of Credentials to remote servers RRS feed

  • Question

  • Working with a Client at the moment who have added the above security setting and recently added some 2016 machines. The GPO setting is using option 3 in this list however when attempting to initiate a connection using MSTSC I receive a CredSSP encryption Oracle remediation error message.

    1. Restrict Credential Delegation

    Registry Hive

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

    Registry Path

    Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CredentialsDelegation

    Value Name

    RestrictedRemoteAdministrationType

    Value Type

    REG_DWORD

    Value

    3

    1. Require Remote Credential Guard

    Registry Hive

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

    Registry Path

    Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CredentialsDelegation

    Value Name

    RestrictedRemoteAdministrationType

    Value Type

    REG_DWORD

    Value

    2

    1. Require Restricted Admin

    Registry Hive

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

    Registry Path

    Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CredentialsDelegation

    Value Name

    RestrictedRemoteAdministrationType

    Value Type

    REG_DWORD

    Value

    1

     

    I have added the registry key to the destination and host :

    DWORD = DisableRestrictedAdmin but cannot connect due to the CredSSH error, on a 2016 machine I can change the sub setting in PreProd to 'Require Restricted Admin' and the connection completes however  in production this setting is set by GPO that I do not have access to see or change so was wondering if there are any other Admin's out there that are having this issue and if there is a resolution that does not reduce the security.
