Was this a token/radius  implementation of 2FA or a SmartCard implementation?

I'm under the impression that smartcard is the only type tied in enough to windows API to count.

We ran into this limitation in our evaluations too. RDP would honor the 
policy requiring
2-factor but not SMB/RPC oriented sessions like remote scripting which is
what we were trying to protect to prevent automated and instant domain 
wide compromise
from a worm or compromised administrator account.
