Hi together,

In my scenario, I have two other users who want to give external people the possibility to test something in our demonstration environment. I gave them the permission to add new users and now they are able to create users, but they cannot assign connections to them. Even not when I permit them to create new connections. I must admit, I don’t really understand the permission system of guacamole, es far as I can see you can only permit someone to create new things, and manage them, but he can’t “edit” any existing. In my case, this makes it difficult, as I don’t want the users to have the possibility to create new connections or change them, but I want them to be able to “use” them and assign them to accounts they created. Is there any way to achieve this?

I use guacamole 1.5.4 in a Docker environment with postgres authentication.


Only an account with full system administrator permissions can directly assign permissions related to users/connections that they didn't create themselves.

You could give the user(s) in question permission to create user groups. They would then be able to add/remove people within those groups so long as they are the ones that created those users. You would then use your own system administrator account to assign connections to the relevant groups. This way, only you would be able to control which specific connections apply, yet the users that created the user groups would still be able to control which of their own users inherit those permissions.
