Thanks for pointing to this closed https://github.com/apache/guacamole-server/pull/430 which tried to do exactly what we are looking for. The implementation on this project hat been started with the CEF library. It would be super helpful to know the reason why the project has been closed and how far this implementation has gone. We consider to try it with Selenium and the Chrome Driver too. If anyone can contribute with expertise on this topic or is interested. I look forward to the exchange ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>)
