Hi Nick

Thanks for replying. Which 'connection properties' are you referring to? If it 
is the guacamole properties, I did leave it blank for both username and 
password, but the connection only prompt for password. And if I entered the 
default VNC account password into the prompt, the connection succeed (without 
any username prompt or having to specify username anywhere within guacamole).

If I entered any other password for any other user account in the VNC server, 
they will fail authentication (again there was no prompting for username)

Thanks

Hi,

We have a VNC server with multiple accounts setup. VNC client can login using 
different username and password. The username is enter in the client properties 
and the password is prompted during connection. With guacamole, this doesn't 
look to be possible. The connection will only connect with the password setup 
for the default VNC user account. How can I setup guacamole to allow VNC 
connection other that the default VNC server user account.


No, the prompting in the Guacamole interface is specifically designed such 
that, if you enter a value in the connection properties, it will not allow the 
user to override or change that value. If you want the user to be prompted you 
will need to leave the value blank.
