The admin interface results from having a supported database installed and configured, and the default admin account is created as a part of that process: http://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/jdbc-auth.html#jdbc-auth-database-creation http://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/jdbc-auth.html#jdbc-auth-default-user Once you have the database support in place (or any other authentication extension), there is no need for "user-mapping.xml".
