Hi,
I've been fighting with getting Guacamole LDAP extension to work with our 
active directory which is hosted on a Windows Server. All help I could find 
relates to OpenLDAP which is not an option.
I've managed to get the LDAP to authenticate the user, though what's weird is 
the fact in the logs I can see it doing three queries to LDAP with a single 
logon.
Connection to LDAP server without encryption.
Searching "OU=x,DC=y,DC=z" for objects matching 
"(userPrincipalName=myLoginName)"
Connection to LDAP server without encryption.
User "myLoginName" successfully authenticated from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Connection to LDAP server without encryption.
Searching "OU=x,DC=y,DC=z" for objects matching 
"(userPrincipalName=myLoginName)"
Connection to LDAP server without encryption.
Searching "OU=x,DC=y,DC=z" for objects matching(userPrincipalName=*)

I never make it past the login screen but I've got an error pop up on top of 
the login pane "Unable to query list of objects from LDAP directory."
I was unable to alter the database due to the simple fact I have no idea what 
properties to put or anything like that as I can only find OpenLDAP related 
stuff.
If it isn't obvious enough, I'm in no way an IT guy; I'm a Software Engineer 
who is setting this up for the team as IT has other priorities so I apologise 
for any silly questions or statements I might make.
What my questions are:

  *   Why is the LDAP querying basically the identical thing twice and finally 
with a * wildcard?
  *   How can I create a Guac config on a Windows AD (as in, what does it 
require etc)
Thanks
Andrew
