Install Adfs On Windows 10

[Jacquelyne Betance]

Iam trying to configure PrivacyIdea to use it for 2FA with Exchange OWA. I have gone through soem documentations and installed PrivacyIDEA server and ADFS adn configured Privacyidea adfs provider. But I am not able to get any guide on how to integrate it completely and use 2FA with OWA. Please provide me step by step guide on configuring Privacyidea with OWA.

My owa page now comes up with ADFS page and then requesting for OTP, but keeps on getting login failed even with correct OTP from privacyidea android app. When I test OTP on privacyidea server it can successfully verify OTP. Not sure why ADFS is not able to verify OTP. Please help.

I configured my PrivacyIDEA server without SSL cert. Hence I was getting SSL errors. I updated config file for PrivacyIDEA-ADFS Provider and disabled SSL cert and that resolved the issue. I will be getting my SSL cert soon and then I will enable Cert check again. For now 2FS is working with OWA

As a next step I am trying to implement 2FS for RDP connections. I downloaded PrivacyIDEA Credential Provider, but it is missing required dll files. I believe Credential Provider is only available with enterprise edition and not as open source or is there other way to implement 2FA for RDP sessions.

Please understand, that Open Source is not about getting things to work at no cost. It is about your right to use and adapt it. Open Source has nothing to do with free in free beer.

Actually you can not add 2FA directly on the RD Gateway level (since it does RADIUS NPS and Kerberos Tickets).

You need to add the above mentioned Credential Provider on the Terminal Server behind the RD Gateway. So the RD Gateway verifies the first factor (AD Password) and then the TS only needs to verify the 2nd factor using the Credential Provider.

I also did installed visual studio 2015 and sql server 204 for claims injection but not covering that in this post. Sql server does not like to be installed on domain controller so have to tame that beast to work and my advice would be not do that unless you really have to do it.

[NOTE: I have tried these steps on windows server 2016 technical preview 4. There is no guarantee that they will also work as-is/at all on any future previews or rtm. Also these instructions and scripts are provided without any warranty and are not for production usage]

All you need to get started is w2k16-tp4 installed and running. I decided to use azure vm to install and host it. You can do it too by going here and follow the instructions. Now, by no means you have to use azure vm so feel free to choose you preferred method to install it either on-premises or in the cloud.

Before we jump into installation of adfs we need to procure a certificate as adfs needs it as part of installation and also to function. Creation of certificate is something that needs to be taken care of upfront as shown by script below.

The password is needed for the next cmdlet export-pfxcertificate that export the certificate to the filesystem. You should provide a pass phrase that you remember for future use. Finally, we export the certificate in .pfx format on the file system. The lines 11-16 are optional but recommended [dev environment only] to avoid browser warnings related to self signed certificates. Basically we are taking the self signed certificate and add it to trusted root certification authorities on local machine.

We are now ready for adfs to be setup. The install-windowsfeature cmdlet is used with adfs-fedeation as the name of the feature to be installed. This will begin the adfs install and typically it takes several minutes to complete. Next, import the adfs module to get the full set of cmdlets needed for further configuration of adfs.

One last step is that you must check to see if spn [service principal name] is setup properly for the account running adfs. This step can be automated but for now providing instructions to do it manually. Should able to do it under a minute.

You should now be running adfs farm on a single machine. From here you can go further by installing visual studio, sql server etc. One caveat with sql server though is that it does not like to be installed on domain controller for many very valid/legitimate reasons. I did tried it so to have everything on a single virtual machine [azure d2 type vm: 14 gb ram + 2 cores + w2k16-tp4 + adfs + sql server 2014 + visual studio 2015] and its does work out fine but have to do some minor tweaks for sql to work . I do think though that sql on a separate machine may be better idea in general just to play nicely with the product even in the dev environment where you do want complete freedom.

Zendesk supports single sign-on (SSO) logins through SAML 2.0. A SAML 2.0 identity provider (IDP) can take many forms, one of which is a self-hosted Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) server. ADFS is a service provided by Microsoft as a standard role for Windows Server that provides a web login using existing Active Directory credentials.

When you have a fully installed ADFS installation, note down the value for the 'SAML 2.0/W-Federation' URL in the ADFS Endpoints section. If you chose the defaults for the installation, this will be '/adfs/ls/'.

Once the relying party trust has been created, you can create the claim rules and update the RPT with minor changes that aren't set by the wizard. By default the claim rule editor opens once you created the trust. If you want to map additional values beyond authentication, refer to our documentation.

You still need to adjust a few settings on your relying party trust. To access these settings, select Properties from the Actions sidebar while you have the RPT selected.

Note: Your instance of ADFS may have security settings in place that require all Federation Services Properties to be filled out and published in the metadata. Check with your team to see if this applies in your instance. If it is, be sure to check the Publish organization information in federation metadata box.

After setting up ADFS, you need to configure your Zendesk account to authenticate using SAML. Follow the steps in Enabling SAML single sign-on. You'll use your full ADFS server URL with the SAML endpoint as the SSO URL, and the login endpoint you created as the logout URL. The fingerprint will be the fingerprint of the token signing certificate installed in your ADFS instance.

Important: If you use a third-party SSO method to create and authenticate users in Zendesk, then switch to Zendesk authentication, these users will not have a password available for login. To gain access, ask these users to reset their passwords from the Zendesk sign in page.

Office 365 is a web suite of enterprise-grade productivity applications offered on a subscription basis. As soon as you pay for the subscription plan, Office 365 is ready to use. But you can always configure additional features. One such feature that may be useful for companies using Microsoft Office 365 and Active Directory Domain Services is Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) for Office 365. ADFS offers advantages for authentication and security such as single sign-on (SSO).

Add an extra level of safety and security with Microsoft Office 365 cloud data backup. Try NAKIVO Backup & Replication. This is an all-in-one solution delivering complete protection for your virtual, physical, cloud, and SaaS infrastructures, while saving you time, effort, and money.

Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) is a Single Sign-On (SSO) and web-based authentication solution by Microsoft. With SSO, users can use a single set of credentials (username and password) to access several related but independent applications or websites. ADFS allows users to access applications that are not compatible with standard Active Directory Windows authentication. ADFS is a Windows Server OS component, for example, Windows Server 2016 provides ADFS v.4.0 (ADFS 2016 is the same as ADFS 4.0). Users can use a single set of credentials to access services and applications that are integrated with Active Directory through SSO, as well as access native Windows services. ADFS can be used as an alternative to cloud identity and can help solve problems related to password management. After configuring ADFS for Office 365, users will be able to use their Windows domain username and password to access Office 365 applications.

Moreover, ADFS uses the claims-based Access Control Authorization model to secure applications by using federated identity. Federated identity management allows users to use the same identification data to get access across multiple networks/services of the organization.

Now you have to install the ADFS role on your Windows Server machine. In this blog post, this role is installed on the domain controller running Windows Server 2016 by using the graphical user interface (GUI) and the workflow is demonstrated with a large number of screenshots. However, it is possible to use PowerShell as an alternative if you like the command line interface.

In Server Manager (a window that is opened by default when Windows Server 2016 boots), click Add roles and features. The Add Roles and Features Wizard window opens in which you have to configure a few steps.

Confirmation. You can select the checkbox to restart the destination server automatically if required and hit Yes to confirm. Finally click Install to set up ADFS for Office 365.

Before you can continue to set up ADFS for Office 365, you should create a certificate. Active Directory Certificate Services must be installed for this purpose. In Server Manager click Add roles and features. As described in the previous section, the Add Roles and Features Wizard opens.

Confirmation. Check your configuration, select the checkbox to restart the destination server automatically if required and hit Install to start the installation process.
