Hi, I have been using guac for about a month and it has been running 
flawlessly.  All of a sudden today, I get complaints that users cannot login.  
I am using radius for authentication and so I see this in the guacamole logs:

13:34:29.154 [http-nio-8080-exec-1] ERROR 
o.a.g.a.r.AuthenticationProviderService - Cannot configure RADIUS server: 
Unable to resolve RADIUS server host. 1

So I think I have a DNS issue, however, I can ping the radius server name and 
it correctly resolves the IP on the server command line.  This seems to get 
fixed when I reload the guacamole docker image however, now that I can login, I 
cannot connect to any of my connections.  When I look at the guacd logs, I see 
this for every connection:

guacd[1]: INFO: Creating new client for protocol "rdp"

guacd[1]: INFO: Connection "$17fe4200-8b26-4ed1-915f-c65b6182373a" removed.

Again, another name resolution issue... so I reboot the server completely and I 
am still getting the issue.  right now I cannot connect to name connections, 
but I can connect when I change the name to the IP address.  And again, all of 
these names resolve just fine from the server comand line....

So, now I just figured out how to create a shell in the guacd docker image like 
this:
docker exec -it guacd sh

and from inside the guacd docker image, I cannot name resolve any more.  Again, 
this was working until today and I cannot see anything that changed.


Can anyone give me a clue as to why this would have started out of the blue?

Thanks in advance


Tony
