Windows 2012 R2 RDS: Does installing Web Access solve "can't login with expired password with NLA enabled issue?

Hi, 

Have Windows 2012 R2 box with only RDS-Gateway installed on perimeter of our environment in AWS. We don't want to use app-deploy feature, just want to manage users RDPing to an internal Windows 2012 R2 box. Multiple users could be connecting at a time and need their own individual sessions.

This all works fine as long as the user's password is not expired or account checked with "Change password at next login". When this occurs, the user is not allowed to login because NLA (initial login process at the gateway) does not support password change (all well documented). I don't want to disable NLA (lowers security level).

I've read elsewhere that using Web Access component is a work around (as the web access component) is the one who presents the login page and supports password change whereas the RDP client does not. 

Looking for a confirmation if this is true and if so, looking for link on how to install/configure web access component alongside rds-gateway (using powershell)
