>Guacamole need to know the password at connection time (in clear-text) True. > Even if the password is encrypted in the DB, it must be decryptable... False (in general) The user needs to enter the password anyway, thus it can be used to validate against salted/hashed/whatever version of password in database while also passing it in clear text to guacd (e.g. as password for RDP connection). You only need to have a decryptable version if you use some other authentication (e.g. certificates) and need the clear text password to establish the connection. Best Regards, Joachim

Guacamole need to know the password at connection time (in clear-text) Even if the password is encrypted in the DB, it must be decryptable... I don't think it's the right way to do something like you want.
