I have been unable to get Guacamoles and HTTP Header Auth working so
would like some help with getting a simple Nginx / Guacamole
configuration working where I just a single hard coded http header via
Nginx to allow me to authenticate with Guacamole.
My Guacamole v0.9.12 install works well and I am able to login with the
username Keith and my password.
I can see the following in the logs so I guess the extension is being
loaded correctly.
INFO o.a.g.extension.ExtensionModule - Extension "HTTP Header
Authentication Extension" loaded.
This is my nginx.conf.
location / {
proxy_pass "http://127.0.0.1:8080";;
proxy_set_header X-Remote-User Keith;
}
This is the line I have added to my guacamole.properties
http-auth-header: HTTP_X_REMOTE_USER
I have checked the http headers and can confirm that there is a
HTTP_X_REMOTE_USER header.
HTTP_X_REMOTE_USER = Keith
I visit the Guacamole login page but don't get logged in and just get
the default User/Password login box.
Where could I be going wrong ?
Thanks
Keith
