Michael Jumper resolved GUACAMOLE-382.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> Difficult to manage an install consisting of many users and connections
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GUACAMOLE-382
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-382
> Project: Guacamole
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: guacamole-auth-jdbc, guacamole-auth-ldap
> Affects Versions: 0.9.13-incubating
> Environment: Linux
> Reporter: Wake Board
> Priority: Minor
>
> It is very difficult to use guacamole to manage a large install consisting of
> 40-60 users able to access 40-60 connections. Adding a new connection
> requires visiting each user profile separately to add the new host.
> Would suggest one of two improvements:
> # Improve user management to allow defining roles. These roles (groups)
> could allow assigning specific permissions and then the roles are granted to
> users. For example, there could be roles for developers, testers, and
> customers. Each role unlocks specific connections. Then just the role is
> granted to individual ldap accounts. This would greatly reduce the effort to
> maintain.
> # Provide (or document) an interface to programmatically allow granting
> users-to-connections. This would allow external scripting/management of the
> connections available to a specific user. From the outside, a customer could
> automate assigning the connections that are needed for a specific user.
> Would need to be able to query, add, and remove connections per user and to
> be able to enumerate connections available. Perhaps it could be a REST
> interface or alternatively details of how to do this via the underlying
> database.
> Our install consists of using the ldap module for login authentication and
> the jdbc module for connection information.
