----------------------------------------------------------------
So, code should be ready for review and to try out - if people think I should
submit a pull request, I will, or if you'd rather review in my git repo before
that, that's fine by me. I think I messed up one of the contribution
guidelines in that I committed to the master branch instead of creating a
separate branch, but hopefully that's not a show-stopper. If it is, I'll redo
it. Here's the repo URL:
https://github.com/necouchman/incubator-guacamole-client
To use it, compile and load up the guacamole code. The two new tokens are:
- GUAC_REMHOST
- GUAC_REMIP
If you're connecting to Guacamole directly through Tomcat this should work with
no additional configuration, aside from using the tokens in the connection
configuration.
If you're using a proxy, you'll need to do one of two things:
1) Define the X-Guacamole-Client-Hostname and/or X-Guacamole-Client-IP headers.
Here's an example for Apache that uses the REMOTE_HOST and REMOTE_ADDR headers:
{code}
RequestHeader set X-Guacamole-Client-Hostname %{REMOTE_HOST}s
RequestHeader set X-Guacamole-Client-IP %{REMOTE_ADDR}s
{code}
2) Configure Tomcat to allow the X-Forwarded-For header to be passed through.
This is done with the following configuration in server.xml. Remember this
will only ever have the IP address - X-Forwarded-For never has the hostname.
{code:xml}
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteIpValve"
internalProxies="127.0.0.1"
remoteIpHeader="x-forwarded-for"
remoteIpProxiesHeader="x-forwarded-by"
protocolHeader="x-forwarded-proto" />
{code}
Note that you need to set internalProxies to the list of hosts that are
proxying to Guacamole. In my case I'm just doing it on the local system, so I
have 127.0.0.1.

> Key: GUACAMOLE-47
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-47
> Project: Guacamole
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: guacamole-client
> Affects Versions: 0.9.9
> Reporter: Zach Bonjour
> Priority: Minor
>
> The "Clientname" variable should show the client name connected to the Apache
> server. I am not a programmer, but if I am understanding this right, there
> is a java servlet that could gather that information so it can be used in the
> Guacamole session.
> http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/servlet/ServletRequest.html#getRemoteHost()
> Is this possible?
