Tushar,

Shame it won't work. It's been a while since I utilised that parameter but I had an idea it might have achieved the desired outcome, albeit not quite as you wanted technically, thanks for enlightening me.

Although I quite understand what you want to do unfortunately I can't offer any further insight, however I trust someone else will be able to assist.

Thanks for thinking about this- but unfortunately, that won't work.

As explained by Nick here:

https://lists.apache.org/thread/m7lof9s15n1dr2tlpkoznfstjyph59m0 <https://lists.apache.org/thread/m7lof9s15n1dr2tlpkoznfstjyph59m0>

api-session-timeout refers to idle time on the guac webapp UI. If there is an active connection, guac considers that as not idle, even if there is nothing happening on the actual remote desktop.

Regardless, we have idle timeout for the remote connection working via TigerVNC server's -IdleTimeout parameter.

I just need help figuring out how to turn off guacamole's auto reconnect when the VNC server closes the connection when the idle timeout is triggered.

I found an old thread with some ideas, but not a clear solution, here:

    Tushar,

    I've not tried this specifically, however I wonder if you were to set
    api-session-timeout to 15 in guacamole.properties whether that would
    address your issue?
