Re: Recommended Setup for Guacamole Development

[Cyle]

I recommend doing your development with Docker instead of a virtual
machine. Less strain on the host and easier to get everything up and
running.

Re: Sharing profiles not presented

[Cyle]

I see the sharing profiles menu in Firefox v50.1.0. It's in the
connections tab nested under the each connection's collapsible dropdown.

Re: Scripted Branding

[Cyle]

If it was so easy that everyone could do it developers would be out of a
job. :)

Have a look at the jar file the user shared in this thread:
https://sourceforge.net/p/guacamole/discussion/1110834/thread/be2a6785/

Download that jar file, open it with an archive manger of your choice
and replace the images / CSS as needed. It should be pretty trivial to
automate this process in a bash script if you just need to swap out the
logo and favicon.

But I don't think you can replace assets on the fly, this extension
needs to be incorporated into the build process. I trust you know how to
build guacamole from source? You're using v9.10 after all.

Re: Some mouth events don't seem to work?

[Cyle]

Sorry that was hastily written. Mouse not mouth. Also meant to say "I
have to *lose* mouse focus on the canvas again in order to *zoom* more."
towards the end of that first paragraph.

Some mouth events don't seem to work?

[Cyle]

I noticed that some mouse forms of mouth interaction don't seem to
transmit properly. For instance, I'm using a CAD tool on my remote
windows server. On the other RDP client I use zooming via mouse wheel
seems to work fine for zooming the camera in and out. The only way to
zoom with Guacamole using the mouse wheel seems to be to temporarily
remove mouse focus on the HTML5 canvas. I can then zoom in/out in a
single motion, but as soon as I'm finished zooming I have to loose mouse
focus on the canvas again in order to focus more.

There are a few other mouse applications that don't seem to get carried
over, e.g., there are some drag/drop based UI that doesn't seem to work,
and I can't resize window panes. Though, most of these interactions seem
to work normally when interacting with the Windows desktop (e.g., I can
drag + drop, and resize Windows), it's just some apps that don't seem to
play nicely.

Any solutions? Using the v9.10 docker images.

Required dependencies v0.9.9

[Cyle]

Noticed in the Required dependencies section at
https://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/doc/gug/installing-guacamole.html
it mentions that libraries such as libjpeg-turbo and libpng are required
to build guacamole-server. However, the build still succeeds even when
these libraries are not present. Is this no longer a requirement?

I'm trying to optimize my guacamole-server with the libjpeg62-turbo-dev
package, but I don't see any reference to it at all in the build process
and I'm trying to verify that it's being incorporated.

Re: Landing page before login screen

[Cyle]

Why not just build your own static landing page and simply link to the
guacamole login hosted on a separate domain/sub domain/sub path?

Guacamole 0.9.9 - shared RDP connections possible?

[Cyle]

I was wondering if it was possible for multiple authenticated Gucamole
users to connect simultaneously to the same Windows RDP connection
(e.g., both users connect to the same Windows user and see the same
desktop RDP stream, input from both users is handled)?

I was looking through the Apache jira and noticed some mention of
connection sharing for 0.9.11. Is this currently impossible on the 0.9.9?
