I am planning to use Yubikey with my systems. Currently I have my windows server Active directory is configured to synchronize with Microsoft AD services. So if I use Yubikey in my server for 2FA, will it cause any problem with synchronizing of server AD with Azure AD?.
If no issues how can i configure yubikey?

I've got an Azure App Service that needs access to a classic SQL Server (non-Azure SQL, not SQL Managed Instance) and I'd prefer to do this via System Managed Identity. This is enabled on the App Service and a corresponding Enterprise Application is created on Azure AD.
The SQL Server is also connected to this Azure AD and User accounts on the AD already have access to the database. However I can't find how to create a login for the Enterprise Application. If this was an Azure SQL database I could do it with CREATE LOGIN [AZUREAD\app] FROM EXTERNAL PROVIDER but this does not work on a classic SQL Server, only on Azure SQL/MI.
A solution would be to use SQL accounts and reference the login/password in the connection strings, but as mentioned I'd much rather use Azure AD for authentication.
To answer my own question: SQL Server 2022 includes Azure AD authentication Link
Using integrated security or an access token it will be possible to authenticate with an App Registration.
This is currently in preview with no RTM date specified.
We have got Windows Server with AD on premis, and we would like to have access to this AD (by ldap) from App Service hosted in Azure.
It is possible by using Hybrid Connection?
I've read somewhere that Hybrid Connections are based only on TCP, and the LDAP uses UDP (sometimes?).
The App service has code that connect on LDAP and query AD by LDAP.
It is possible there are some workarounds?
Hybrid connection isn't used in this manner. It utilizes an agent that's installed on an on-prem server that establishes a relay connection. This connection allows the app service to connect to your SQL server as if it were hosted in the cloud.
I think what you may want to look at is something like AD Connect which allows you to do hybrid identity and sync your on-prem AD with Azure AD. You can learn more about AD Connect architecture here but I don't know if what sort of protocol/connection it uses to do the sync. That may be dependent on the method of sync you choose.
After you've synced, the users should be in your AAD tenant in which you can leverage the Microsoft Graph API to read group permissions.
I have an on-premises 2019 (15) instance of SSAS in tabular mode. I also have an Azure Active Directory with multiple users.
When connecting to the SSAS instance through SSMS there are 3 available authentication methods:
Windows.
Active Directory - with password
Active Directory - universal with MFA
I am returned the following message when trying to authenticate with 2 or 3:
Cannot connect to xxxxx\xxxxxx. The integrated security 'ClaimsToken'
is not supported for native connections.
(Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient)
How do I make it possible for AAD users to authenticate for access to on-prem use of SSAS?
The modes you are looking at are available for Azure Sql Databases that have been protected with an Azure AD tenant.
On-prem SQL Server and its add-ons do not support authenticating with Azure AD.
I have an application written in VB, which used to connect with a Microsoft SQL Server, which is placed on a VM in the domain, using Windows Authentication(Local Domain).
But, I have moved my DB to a SQL Server which is placed on an Azure VM.
My problem is that i don't know how i can use Windows Authentication(or somehow to "ask" the Active Directory about the user who tries to connect).
I have seen the modes of SQL Server:
Active Directory - Password
Active Directory - Integrated
but i can't understand how i can use them. Should i have to do trust relation between 2 domain(Local, Azure)?
Can someone help?
I have moved my DB to a SQL Server which is placed on an Azure VM.
SQL on an Azure VM is the same product you might run on-premises, and supports SQL Auth and Windows Integrated Auth. The Azure Active Directory authentication methods supported by Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Data Warehouse are not applicable to SQL Server running in an Azure VM. See:
Azure Active Directory authentication is a mechanism of connecting to
Azure SQL Database and SQL Data Warehouse by using identities in Azure
Active Directory (Azure AD).
See Use Azure Active Directory Authentication for authentication with SQL Database, Managed Instance, or SQL Data Warehouse
For SQL Server running in an Azure VM you use either SQL Authentication or Windows Authenticationl, as outlined here Authentication in SQL Server
You can use Windows Auth in your VM with either local accounts (created on the VM), or you can deploy a Domain Controller on a separate VM into your VMs VNET and use identities from the Domain. The Domain Controller you deploy into your Azure VNET can be an isolated Domain, or it can be a replica for your on-premises domain. If you want to deploy a replica of your on-premises domain into an Azure VNET you also will need to use a site-to-site VPN or ExpressRoute, as explained here Guidelines for Deploying Windows Server Active Directory on Azure Virtual Machines
I need to connect my web app on Azure to our on site SQL Server instance via Windows authentication (not via SQL Server account authentication). Active Directory is already integrated with the on-site AD and therefore all of the users are available there.
My question is, is it possible to hook up an azure web app to an on-site SQL Server via Windows authentication.
is it possible to hook up an azure web app to an on-site SQL Server via Windows authentication.
Base on my option, it maybe that we couldn’t do that. As we have been limited to do that operation for azure WebApp. There is also another SO thread mentioned that.
If we want to connect to on premise SQL Server, we can use hybrid connections to access on-premises SQL server database in Azure WebApp, more info please refer to the document.
If we want to authenticate the WebApp with local Active Directory, and we have an on-premises secure token service (STS) like Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), we could use that to federate authentication for our Azure WebApp. More info please refer to the document.
Hybrid connections at this time does not support AD accounts due to
because you cannot domain join an App Service worker
