[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-514) Add username to VNC authentication

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-514?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16372659#comment-16372659 ] 

Nick Couchman commented on GUACAMOLE-514:
-----------------------------------------

At a glance it looks like this should be feasible.  I'm not certain it's just a matter of adding the username field, but the libvncserver/libvncclient library does appear to support the MSLogon authentication type, which I believe is what UltraVNC uses for its integrated "domain authentication" model.  Glancing at the libVNC code, it looks like this might also entail adding some sort of field for selecting the type of authentication to use.

> (similar to [GUAC-173])
> To use e.g. UltraVNC domain authentication a unsername is needed.
> I looked at underlying libvncclient and realized there seems to be support: typedef union _rfbCredential has both username and password fields.
> So perhaps only a input field for username is missing which can be straightforward sent to libvncclient?
