There is some work in progress on this:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-38
https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client/pull/181

I am trying to see if we can use Guacamole to provide RDP access for

Ideally, you would pre-configure the connections for these people so they
have access to only their specific computer(s) after logging in to
Guacamole, pull that information from LDAP / AD, write an extension which
dynamically derives these connections on a per-user basis, etc. Having an
input box which allows users to connect to any arbitrary machine is not a
precondition for having 700 users.

Unless these users truly need absolutely unrestricted access to everything,
I would instead recommend leveraging Guacamole's gateway nature and taking
a more principle-of-least-privilege approach.

Input box to type ip?

[michel.deschenes]

Hey,

I've been poking around but can't find anything on this..

Is it possible to display an input box so that the users can just type in
the ip (or FQDN) of the machine they wish to RDP to? I am trying to see if
we can use Guacamole to provide RDP access for roughly 700 people so they
can remote into their work computers if working from home.
