RSA Authentication Agent - Windows Server 2019

[DuaneMonroe]

I see that Windows Server 2019 is not listed in the supported operating systems for Authentication Agent 7.4.2.  Will Agent 7.4.2 work on Windows Server 2019? If not, when will a agent be released that supports 2019.

It's not "officially" supported yet, but it works!

Duane Monroe‌,

To follow on with Luka Kodric‌'s reply, the RSA Authentication Agent 7.4.2 for Microsoft Windows is not officially supported with Microsoft Server 2019. 

That being said, it should work when installed on that OS.  The caveat being if you run into any issues with the agent that Customer Support can identify as being caused by the OS, we will ask you to install the agent on a supported OS.

Regards,

Erica

The other half of what Luka said is the 'yet', as in not supported yet.  I do not know the timeline but Windows is typically on every roadmap.

I am waiting to hear from someone in PM to see if I can get more information on the road map.  I will update when I get more information.

Hey Erica, 

Did PM respond to the timeline question for Win2019 support on the 7.4.2 AAWin agent?

Jay Guillette‌,

Thanks for the reminder.  Checking in with the team.

Stay tuned.

There are documents that say the new next gen agents will support Microsoft Credential Provider v.2 that is in Windows 10, Windows Server 2012 R2 and above.  I believe that why Luka was able to get the 7.4.2[122] agent to work on Windows 2019.  Since 'Supported' can be interpreted as Tested by QE, we should have some clear statement from PM about RSA's official stance, would PM bypass Win 2019 support from AAWin 7.4.x and only support the Next Gen Version?
