Nick Couchman updated GUACAMOLE-360:
------------------------------------
Affects Version/s: (was: 0.9.13-incubating)
Component/s: guacamole-client
> Autoreconnect only most recent session
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: GUACAMOLE-360
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-360
> Project: Guacamole
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: guacamole-client
> Reporter: Matt Prager
> Priority: Minor
>
> I've had an issue with Guacamole where I forget to logoff a VNC session, go
> use a completely different computer or device, try to login to the same
> session and get caught in an "autoreconnect loop" where the new session logs
> off off the old session which then autoreconnects that old session and logs
> off the new session ad inifinitum. There's no way to stop this because, if
> I'm not in front of the computer I forgot to log off, I have no way of
> shutting down that session remotely.
> Since many of us leave tabs open rather than remembering to close them, it
> seems that the behavior should be, in the event of a user trying to
> simultaneously log into the same session, that autoreconnect should only
> apply to the most recent session and the older session should be disconnected
> and remain that way.
> Otherwise, you run into a situation where you were using Guacamole at the
> office to log into a VNC session and are then unable to use Guacamole to log
> into that session from anywhere else which sort of defeats the purpose of
> remote access.
