Michael Jumper resolved GUACAMOLE-248. -------------------------------------- Resolution: Incomplete > Support for Inheriting Connection Parameters from Group > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GUACAMOLE-248 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-248 > Project: Guacamole > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: guacamole-client > Reporter: Nick Couchman > Priority: Minor > > One of the things that might be nice to implement is the ability to define > certain parts of a connection at the group level and then have those be > inherited by the connections. The main scenario that comes to mind is that > you want to create a balancing group of (for example) 100 RDP servers. You'd > like all of the servers to use 3389 for the port and ${GUAC_USERNAME} and > ${GUAC_PASSWORD} tokens for pass-through authentication from guacamole, and > the only thing that will be different about each of the connections is the > hostname or IP address to which they connect. The ability to define most of > the settings on the connection group (or, perhaps, a "template connection" of > some sort) and then allow child connections to inherit properties from either > the parent group or template would drastically reduce the administration in > creating at least 99 of those 100 connections. > Seems like this involves either defining parameters at the connection group > level, or creating a new "template" connection type that then connections > could link to. This also seems to be fairly strictly limited to the JDBC > authentication extension - probably not something you're going to try to do > in either LDAP or a simple file mechanism, and JDBC is the only area where > connection groups are supported, anyway. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
