Re: Client confusion
Good morning Andrew and Bob, First off Andrew thank you for your reply, however it added to my confusion somewhat. You mentioned "once you configured your devices to talk with Guac”, this doesn’t jive with me as in my installation it is Guac that talks to the devices being that there is no client on the devices to talk to Guac. Bob, thank you as well for your input and again I must be looking at this incorrectly. Based on the reverse proxy scenario, say I have “X” number of sites with multiple devices behind a firewall at each site. Is it your recommendation to run a reverse proxy at each site in order to route requests from Guac to the devices without port forwarding through the firewall?

Re: Client confusion
Good morning everyone, Perhaps if I described my test scenario it will help to better explain what I am trying to accomplish and hopefully give you, the experts, the information necessary to tell me if this is possible and if so how to go about it. I have Guacd, Guacamole Server, and Mysql-server running in Docker containers on a colocated physical server with direct internet access and public IP. Guacamole server utilizing mysql authentication. I have port 8080 mapped into port 8080 of my Guacamole Server container. My interest would be in being able to remote access machines running various operating systems at various locations, some behind firewalls some being servers directly accessible via public IP. I have no issues setting up ssh configured devices in my Guac Home to connect to publicly accessible servers on the internet. The only benefit this gives me is a single location from which to access these servers via http connection to my Guac server. Now say for instance I want to use Guacamole to access client workstations and servers running various OS at their office locations behind firewalls. In order to use Guacamole it seems as though I would have to possibly run a Guacamole server at each location with a single port forward on the firewall into port 8080 of the Guac server or a reverse proxy at each location routing request from my Guac server to the intended machines on the internal network is this correct or am I looking at this the wrong way? Thank you all for your time and information. Regards, Matthew Strowbridge On Call Technology Services Inc.

Re: docker images blank login page
Good morning, I experienced the blank white page the first time I tried running Guac docker image. I went through everything multiple times and after several times looking at it I realized I had an incorrect mysql password in the Guacamole server image run command. Food for thought, you may want to double check that. Regards, Matthew Strowbridge On Call Technology Services Inc.

Re: docker images blank login page
Excuse me, the Guacamole Server container run command not image. I’m sure you get my meaning. Matthew Strowbridge On Call Technology Services Inc.
