Confirm before connect to virtual desktop

[tuxmartin <tu...@gmail.com>]

Hi,
is possible to confirm before connect to virtual desktop?

Sometimes I click on bad host. And Guacamole will connect to pc immediately.
TightVNC server set black wallpaper on user pc at this moment. It is not
good for me.

I would like some dialog like "Do you really want to connect? Yes/No".
Is is possbile?

Thanks.

It is possible, but I would be highly opposed to adding such a "feature"
into the mainline Guacamole code.  While I can certainly understand the
desire to have confirmation when doing something like, say, deleting files,
doing so prior to connecting to a remote desktop session seems excessive.

You're certainly welcome to take the Guacamole code and modify it yourself
- you might even be able to accomplish such a think by writing an extension
that decorates the JDBC module.  It should be reasonably easy to modify the
existing code to pop up a JavaScript prompt/confirmation box of some sort
if you really wanted to in order to accomplish this prior to the connection.
