This is covered in the JDBC authentication section of the manual: https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/jdbc-auth.html#concurrent-use-of-guacamole-connections What this does _not_ include is the ability to track or limit disconnected sessions on the servers themselves - so, while it can do "Session Affinity," it has no actual knowledge of where disconnected sessions exist on the remote servers. -Nick >
