log in to vm from thin client with only one authentication

hi all:

I am doing a POC right now and need to fix this problem ASAP. I deployed 100 VM(all win7) by View Linked clone, when I tried to connect these vms through thin clients(WES system)and they are working just fine. The problem is I have to authenticate twice, the first one is log in to the thin client and the second one is authentication for Vmware View, and I am using the same domain user. Is it possible that I just enter my username and password during thin client authentication and the system will log in to the VM automatically? which means, the when a user turn on the thin client and enter the username/password, the only thing they can see is the VM.

The solution your looking for is SINGLE SIGN ON. Which come with Active directory SSO.

Just refer the below refer the case study for windows 2003 R2 and lower. Same application for windows 2008 +
