Hi all, we integrated Guacamole successfully into our e-learning environment.
While it is very a nice feature to forward the login credentials from Guacamole to the remote RDP host's login dialog, it doesn't seem to be possible to forward the session type from Guacamole to the remote host. Starting a remote session automatically only works as long as we use the "autorun" feature in "xrdp.ini" and pre-select the session to start statically. Why would it be an interesting feature to give Guacamole the ability to select the RDP session? The background is: We would like to offer links into Guacamole which open a new window and directly start a specific application on the remote host. Of course, I could configure this using a new Guacamole connection for each application and an RDP session for each application. But this will not allow me to start the application directly as long as all applications run on the same RDP host. In this case, the RDP session would have to be selected at the RDP login dialog every time (which I would like to hide from the user). One possibility would be to run an XRDP daemon for each application and use different ports, but this would cause too much overhead in my opinion (besides that I don't know whether it is possible at all to run more than one XRDP daemon on one host). So my question is: Are there any plans (or is it possible in general) to allow the RDP session to be selected based on the Guacamole service which a user has chosen (or has been lead to via hyperlink)? Thank you very much in advance for any help! Kind regards, Steffen -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dipl.-Inf.
