This will only affect the directory used for uploads by default. It will
not limit access in any way (please see the description above).

Correct. The "sftp-directory" does not control this. It only affects
drag-and-drop uploads.

The "sftp-directory" parameter does not control this. It only controls the
default upload directory for drag-and-drop uploads. Only the
"sftp-root-directory" parameter controls which directory is exposed via
SFTP.

If you enable both traditional drive redirection and SFTP, file transfer
via drag-and-drop will use drive redirection. The upload will go over SFTP
only if that is the only file transfer mechanism enabled, or if you
explicitly upload via SFTP using the Guacamole menu.

When transferring via drag-and-drop, the file will be transferred to the
location specified within "sftp-directory" (this is the purpose of that
parameter). Based on the configuration information you've provided, you
should find the uploaded file within /tmp on your Guacamole server.

5. Do Guacamole supports virtual channels or dynamic channels ?

You already have a thread open for this. Rather than duplicating your

searching for an answer to this question, the original thread is here:

Guacamole currently only supports copy/paste of plain text.

Amarjeet - this is an awful lot of questions, some of which do not deal
with the original topic. If you have additional questions which do not
relate to the original subject of the thread (your issues opening the
virtual drive within the RDP session), please open a new thread.
