Hi Dave,

I am trying to understand what it does and what it is good for. My take is: the 
user has to authenticate first to salsa, with LDAP credentials, which 
whitelists the IP used, and then authenticate again to Guacamole, likely using 
with LDAP credentials again?

Which causes me to ask: do you think the Guacamole login screen is less secure 
then the one of Salsa?

Or what am I missing?

Thanks, Joachim

Betreff: Want some Salsa with your guacamole?

 

Hey all,

Hopefully this is helpful to someone, but we have released our Haproxy 
whitelisting tool, which helps with securing guacamole. We built it protect the 
guacamole login screen behind an Haproxy ACL.  

 

https://github.com/sol1/salsa 

 

Salsa is a simple web interface which interacts with HAProxy to grant and 
revoke access to backends via HAproxy's built in ACL feature. ACLs can be 
managed with a Salsa admin user. Groups can then be created with a list of ACLs 
to unlock to users. Users can be added and removed to multiple groups. Once a 
user successfully logs in, that user's IP address with be added to the ACL 
(whitelisted). We built it protect the guacamole login screen behind an Haproxy 
ACL. 

 

Feel free to follow up via github if need help or information, and I hope this 
helps someone. 

 

Keep up the great work Guacamole team!

 

thanks

Dave Kempe
