Do you mean the config files for guacd? Or the client?

philx commented on 2020-09-30 06:16 (UTC)

where to find config files after install? /etc/guacamole is not created.

@SwankyBarbecue4 a good point to start is the official docu:

https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html

Just start guacd daemon and configure your client in tomcat8.

I personally have several guacamole installations. But if you need something simple, without lots of users, you can use a simple configuration with a tomcat8 and in /usr/share/tomcat8/.guacamole/user-mapping.xml your RDP or VNC connection. In my case I have simple VNC connection to my localhost to share my screen:

<user-mapping>

    <!-- Per-user authentication and config information -->
    <authorize username="guest" password="mysecret">
        <protocol>vnc</protocol>
        <param name="hostname">localhost</param>
        <param name="port">5900</param>
        <param name="read-only">true</param>
        <param name="color-depth">24</param>
        <param name="cursor">remote</param>
    </authorize>

</user-mapping>

I have installed both the guacamole-server and guacamole-client packages. I cannot find any guides online for Arch systems. I have no clue what to do next.

My goal is to connect to my Win 10 machine through my Manjaro machine via the Brave browser.

Many thanks to whoever is willing to help! :)

@Kppqju77 fixed. Thanks!

Looks like libwebsocket is missing an "s" for libwebsockets.

@DocMAX

To begin with freerdp 2.0.0 needs a writeable home directory from the user it is used. It wants to store certificates in a .config dir inside home. So you need to look what user guacd is running under. Then create a home dir for it and make it writeable to this user. Then retry guacamole. I can assure you it works.

PS: in a stock arch config the user is daemon. There are comments that this is probably not the best idea for a writeable home dir. So feel free to change the guacd user to some new user/group.

Any idea why this is?

New version 1.1.0 pushed. RDP works well now with freerdp package from [extra].

Enjoy!

skraw commented on 2020-01-06 12:20 (UTC)

freerdp 2.0 support is not yet ready in guacamole upstream, so there is no other chance of making it work. Which it does now. Thank you.
