VDA failing to register to Cloud Connectors.
VDA Event Viewer Error ID 1023: "The Citrix Desktop Service was refused a connection to the delivery controller"
VDA CDF error:
"Broker Proxy failed to communicate with the cloud DDC."
Cloud Connector CDF error:
BrokerProxyPlugin.LocalTest - Failed to test the VDA communication - System.ServiceModel.Security.SecurityNegotiationException: SOAP security negotiation with 'http://10.x.x.x/Citrix/VirtualDesktopAgent/IQueryAgent'; for target 'http://10.x.x.x/Citrix/VirtualDesktopAgent/IQueryAgent'; failed. See inner exception for more details. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The Security Support Provider Interface (SSPI) negotiation failed.
Resolution
You may have a cross-forest trust set up, which uses RC4 on the trust relationship. In this case, please refer to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4492348/kerberos-unsupported-etype-error-when-authenticating-across-trust for more details and a method to configure the trust to use AES128 and AES256 encryption.
A second solution is to enable RC4 Kerberos encryption type on the Connectors through Group Policy:
- Navigate to Local Group Policy Editor --> Computer Configuration --> Windows Settings --> Security Settings --> Local Policies --> Security Options
- Select --> Network Security: Configure encryption types allowed for Kerberos
- Update Local Security Setting RC4_HMAC_MD5 so box is checked.
- Select 'Apply'

Problem Cause
Group Policy was modified on the Cloud Connectors restricting kerberos to only support encryption method AES128_HMAC_SHA1 & AES256_HMAC_SHA1
Kerberos session ticket being denied from the domain controller due to non-supported encryption type.
