[External] : Re: Windows Credential Guard with MSLSA

[Simo Sorce]

Are trying to forward TGTs from Windows clients to a Linux Server?

A) You shouldn't
B) I am not aware of any implementation of Credential Guard that will
allow that.

If you just need to impersonate users for some specific task there is
constrained delegation which is better than forwarding around
credentials critical for security, and allows the KDC (ie central
administration) to properly control and authorize it.

HTH,
Simo.
