Hi,
My organization does not allow the use of wild card certificates. How do I go about configuring direct connections to my virtual desktops without using wild card certificates?
Thanks.
No, they not required. You can use an internal or external CA and the certificate can be the fqdn of the server, but the "friendly name" must be 'VDM'.
Only catch is that u need 1 cert for each server where a wildcard serves all the servers,

Thanks, Larry. Let me check if this works and get back.
You can also use a CN cert. Let's say your fqdn is horizonview.corp.local and your view brokers are broker1.corp.local, broker2.corp.local. You can dump all of the brokers fqdn names as subject alternative names. Deploy the same cert to all your brokers. That works as well.
I had a wildcard cert for all of my sites (5) and while it did work, View Admin reported all of the servers being untrusted because the name didn't match. I had to get a 30 UCC cert which i put all of my FQDN and DNS entries in the cert itself and everything is green in View Admin.
