Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-768: ------------------------------------------ {quote} If a user is created a SQL user (mysql in my case) then that user inherits group connections. If a user exists in LDAP in doesn't inherit group connections, but it does inherit administrative permissions. {quote} This is the intended behavior. The groups which apply to a particular user are dictated by the extension that authenticates that user. If you want an LDAP user to have the permissions granted to a group, they will need to be a member of that group according to LDAP. There is an issue open for adding the cross-extension inheritance that you're describing, though: GUACAMOLE-696 If the user exists only in LDAP, there is an outstanding issue which prevents that user from inheriting group permissions from the database despite the group existing in both LDAP and the database: GUACAMOLE-715 > SQL backed group doesn't work with LDAP auth > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: GUACAMOLE-768 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-768 > Project: Guacamole > Issue Type: Bug > Components: guacamole-auth-ldap > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Charlie Stamp > Priority: Minor > > If a user is created a SQL user (mysql in my case) then that user inherits > group connections.
