No. After creating the directory, you would create any configuration files
that you need. You mentioned that you want to use "user-mapping.xml"
earlier, so that would be a file that you should create. The format is
documented in the manual, along with a full example:

http://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html#user-mapping

If not using "user-mapping.xml", then you would not be creating this file.
There are also other directories and files that can exist within
"/etc/guacamole", but none of these need to be created (or should be
created) unless you find yourself needing to do so. Have a configuration
option that requires a property in "guacamole.properties"? Then that file
needs to be created so you can add the property in question. No such
configuration options need to be set? Then the file doesn't need to exist.

Create the configuration files you need. Don't create what you don't need.
There isn't any boilerplate that needs to be copied, no "make-it-work"
setting that needs to be set to "true". If something needs to be added to a
configuration file, it will be because you have a specific need for exactly
that.
