Hi Nick, I totally disagree. The delta is not just time, but the need of a full blown database that I need to operate with plenty of cpu, memory, and disk usage.

However I also would like to include some of my infrastructure (SSH, VNC, etc.) into the solution – and preferably not as a flat list but with some hierarchy. I do understand that I can run a database and insert all information, likely in parallel to my own extension. However I think that´s overkill (with one user, and system load and backup is an issue) and would prefer if the <http://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html#user-mapping> user-mapping.xml could be extended to support a (simple, i.e. one level totally fine) tree structure. No, the basic file authentication (user-mapping.xml) extension does not support any organization to the connections. The JDBC module is actually the only module that does - all of the other modules that support connections (LDAP, upcoming QuickConnect, and Basic File Authentication) simply put the connections in a single, flat root group with no ability to organize them. If you need this functionality, you need to use the JDBC module - it's worth the very slight overhead and additional 10 minutes of work to get it set up. -Nick
