That's not to say that I doubt that anyone who reports this is actually running into the problem, just that it's difficult to resolve a problem that you cannot deterministically reproduce. If you want to figure out if the problem still exists or has been solved in 1.6.0, the best thing to do would be to build the Docker images yourself and update your environment and see if the problem exists. Regarding moving from Alpine to Debian - I'm sure it's possible; however, the reasons for choosing Alpine as the base image are not arbitrary. I've forgotten exactly why we went that direction in the past, but I believe it was due to the availability of the various libraries that we need for guacd - things like libssh2, FreeRDP, etc. Making that transition to Debian would require a good bit of work to validate that all of the protocols and other features (guacenc) that rely on external libraries. Again, very doable, but not necessarily trivial. > > Also a small feature request for this kind of this HA-Setup: > > Is it possible to add a info somewhere in the connection-history from > which host the connection was initiated?
