I'm curious if any versions of Windows Server are compatible with passwordless logins using Windows Hello for Business. Managing a large number of servers makes it challenging since each server admin must enroll on every server individually. However, it would be a great solution if those credentials could somehow be passed through over RDP from a device where the admin is already registered. Also, I'm wondering if smartcard authentication or FIDO2 works universally across all Windows Server login methods like local and RDP access.

What did you find when you looked into this? People often have conflicting info online about it.
Are you asking if the admin should use the same account for logging in to the server as on their regular workstation? That's not a great idea unless they have a different workstation specifically for admin tasks.
I found various conflicting opinions from years back, which is why I'm interested in getting more current insights.
