Re: Noauth and intermediate password screen
Hi Nick Just to bookend this. Following your advice, I've (experimentally) removed that screen via: -SecurityTypes None for the Tiger VNC server launch. Of course this is dangerous unless the outer layers, firewall, guacamole password etc. provide some decent protection on the way in.

The second (brown - black, maybe) screen is likely the authentication for the remote connection (VNC, RDP, SSH, etc.). If you want to "bypass" this screen, then you need to provide the required credentials for the remote connection within the connection configuration. If you're using user-mapping.xml, this would involve adding the XML entries for the username and password parameters (unless it's VNC and only requires a password). You can find some examples of this in the user manual: https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html#user-mapping-xml -Nick >
Noauth and intermediate password screen
Hi folks I now (mis?)understand that noauth isn't in the latest releases 1.5.5 for example? This may explain why I couldn't get it working... I'd really like to remove the intermediate (brown background) password screen though. It feels as though (I'm using user-mapping.xml) the first login screen with user and password is 'enough'. Where do I start looking in the code please? Or is there a parameter? Thanks in advance Hugh B - https://www.hughbarnard.org Twitter:@hughbarnard Mastodon: @hughbarn...@post.lurk.org Book: https://tinyurl.com/2s4hm33b at Housmans and Freedom Bookshop
