I agree - follow the official docs.  They are quite detailed and will get you a 
running system eventually 8)

That guide you links to seems to confuse using init and systemd - Debian and 
Ubuntu are mostly systemd based.  Find my fairly recent post in this list 
entitled "Re: Why did I not install guacd as systemd" for some hints on sorting 
out running guacd with systemd.

You do not need a guacd.conf - the defaults will just work in most cases.  You 
may want one to run logging at debug but info is still very useful and will 
tell you what is wrong in most cases.


$ journalctl -u guacd -f

I use the following /etc/guacamole/guacd.conf:


[daemon]
log_level = info

[server]
bind_host = localhost
bind_port = 4822


I spell out the host and port number anyway but the log_level can be set to 
debug for more info.  guacd generally listens on localhost because most of the 
time you don't connect to it from another system, the guacamole-client (Tomcat 
servlet) is normally running on the same system.

You should follow the instructions on the Guacamole manual, here's for the 
local install:
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/installing-guacamole.html

You may want to use a container.
For the local installation you have to either create a local connections 
configuration file or use the database option.
It is properly documented on the manual mentioned earlier.
Hope it helps!

David.

I've installed Apache Guacamole in a Debian 11 virtual machine following this 
tutorial

 However, after finishing the installation and trying to connect to a Windows 
machine using RDP, my Guacamole didn't worked. After some research it seemed 
that was a problem with the guacd.conf. In the installation tutorial, the 
guacd.conf file wasn't created, so I've created and pasted the following 
configuration in that file:
[server]
bind_host = 0.0.0.0
bind_port = 4822

But even after that, my Guacamole is not connecting to the machines... can I 
get some help? I don't know what I did wrong.
