Yes, it's internal development, but i think i can explain all the
details in terms of communication flow of the implementation (as i
already did in the previous email).
The system is really simple, just don't know if it is what you need.
In our implementation is the client (where the VNC/RDP server runs) that
makes the connection to the guacamole server, so you must have some
software running there. From your first email seems that you want the
other way around (SSH from the guacamole server to the RDP machine). If
it's like that you need a SSH server running on the RDP machine. Do you
have that?
