    @fbartels I am definitely going to try that

    Maybe you can help me with something within the guacamole config...... for sake or argument I tried building a user account and added my domain NetBIOS name to the front of it <AD><username>.

    Now when I try to edit the account in the guacamole interface, I get the following error:

    ERROR - An error has occurred and this action cannot be completed. If the problem persists, please notify your system administrator or check your system logs.

    It seems like the account is being stored within the mysql database. Any thoughts on how to manually clean it up?

    @mpeterson0418 Oh, I am not using Guac personally, so I cannot really help here.

      Hi @girish & @fbartels

      I got the external authentication working. Thanks a bunch!

      Any thoughts on the lingering user account that I can't remove from Apache Guacamole? Is it stored somewhere within mysql and perhaps something I can edit manually to remove? The user interface keeps giving me the error I referenced earlier:

      ERROR - An error has occurred and this action cannot be completed. If the problem persists, please notify your system administrator or check your system logs.

        @mpeterson0418 Did you succeed via Cloudron external directory or directly from guacamole to your LDAP ?

        As for the lingering user, maybe trying delete from MySQL. If you open web terminal, there is a button on the top for MySQL access. Click that button and press enter. Might want to take an app backup before tinkering with db directly...

          Yes I got the external directory setup and it is pulling in my AD user accounts so we are good there

          As for MySQL..... is there a specific location/table on where I can access the database user accounts? Or is everything entered via UserMappings.xml?

            @mpeterson0418 unfortunately, that part I have no idea since that is very app specific. Maybe you just simply start afresh / re-install. That's probably easier than fixing up db tables by hand since we have no idea about the effect.

              Hey sorry.... just a quick update I found the MySQL table and was able to edit it as needed. Issue got cleared up after running a couple queries. Thanks for your help!

                Hey guys,

                Was wondering if we could potentially revisit this topic? I'm having a weird problem where my guacamole server is defaulting to mysql authentication even after getting my LDAP config setup and syncing

                I've been able to successfully test a login using an AD account from my environment.... however when trying to authenticate with guacamole, it keeps failing and showing a denial from mysql authentication

                Can anyone help?

                  Hello @mpeterson0418
                  You will need to provide more details.

                  From the moment you are trying to log in with LDAP gather the following:

                  • guacamole configuration
                  • Cloudron App Logs
                  • Web browser console logs
                  • Web browser network logs

                  Also, did you follow the documentation https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/ldap-auth.html ?

                  With this information it might be possible to provide assistance.

                    Hey James,

                    I've actually got a handle on this for the most part. One odd thing I am observing here though is - there's no easy way to just log out using OpenID without it forcefully just logging back into the Guacamole application. Is there some way that I can just have the session hold up back at the login screen after a successful logout until I enter credentials again?

                      It would be good to share your findings here so other people who want to set up LDAP find your topic.

                      OpenID? I thought you are configuring LDAP?
                      But no, I don't have an idea how to solve this behaviour right now.
