RE: MFA on RDP
Hi Nick, Well at least I do have some solid information to work with, I agree its not a good solution. But I guess we will be able to get some workaround for this. Thanks for the info, threat can be closed. Kind regards, Wesley.

Does anyone have a suggestion for this? This is something I've looked into in the past - in fact, I have a JIRA issue opened for the ability to configure timeouts. Unfortunately, the way RDP support works in Guacamole, leveraging the FreeRDP libraries, it relies on the FreeRDP libraries for the ability to set things like timeout, and the FreeRDP library does not support that, and they have basically refused to implement it. So, I'm not sure there's a good answer for this today, except to educate users that they'd better have MFA ready when they log in so that they can hit that 15 second window. And, yes, I know that's not a good answer -Nick
MFA on RDP

RE: Capslock not working in RDP
Hi, So to clarify the issue we have, I've tested it with the latest versions of guac-server and guac-client (1.1.0) on Ubuntu 18.04. Test setup: RDP to Windows server 2016, RDP to Windows server 2019. Both scenario's, not depending on the keyboard settings, the Caps lock is not working as expected. When opening the RDP session everything is working as expected. But when pressing the Caps lock you see that the caps lock is enabled on the remote server but the input you type will still be non-capital letters... When you open the on-creen keyboard in the RDP session and you enable the caps lock there, it is working for some reason.. Are there any suggestions on this on how to fix it, we've checked everything but can't seem to get it working.

We have it set to ENG, and all keyboard shortcuts are working as expected, only enabling CAPS Lock does not seem to work correctly. The CAPS locks seems to be enabled in the RDP session, but typing still gives me the NON capital letters. It’s a strange issue.

RE: Capslock not working in RDP
I did some additional research and we are using the following settings: On client side we use the following keyboard layout: NLD (INTL) or ENG (NL) and on the RDP server we use ENG (English united states – Keyboard United states) or NLD (Dutch – Dutch Keyboard Unites states) Client: [cid:image002.png@01D613F6.171E1BA0] RDP: [cid:image003.png@01D613F6.171E1BA0] Any suggestions on this ?

I too HAVE the CAPS LOCK issue. When I press that key, I get capital letters. If I press it again (no mater how many times I do that) I still get capital letters. If I want the lower case letters again I need to re-start the RDP session. I was wondering if I could disable this key altogether (workaround). Vieri
RE: Capslock not working in RDP
Hi Allen, Later on, I did find out when setting the keyboard on “Unicode” it is working as expected. Our default keyboard layout is the US English (qwerty). So when using the US English (Qwerty) keyboard layout its not working. We cant use the Unicode, because then our other keyboard shortcuts are not working like CTRL + A or CTRL + C. Thanks, Wesley.
