connect to everything properly on my rdp client, but when i try connecting
in guacamole, it'll instantly say connection failed. here are my settings
(i've also attached them)

hi again,
so it turned out to be the stupidest thing I could have possibly done. I
literally just put a space at the end of the password. thanks for the help
anyway though!
thanks,
ben

This error indicates that the remote desktop server is either unreachable
over the network from guacd (wrong IP address, wrong hostname, firewall,
etc.) or the connection is being refused (NLA enabled but wrong
credentials, cannot verify TLS certificate).

If your RDP server is using NLA, have you tried explicitly selecting "NLA"
as the security mode of the RDP connection within Guacamole? Are you sure
the credentials are correct?

If you are connecting to a recent version of Windows, TLS encryption is
likely enabled by default, and Windows is likely using a self-signed
certificate which guacd cannot verify. Have you tried checking "Ignore
server certificate"?

What about guacd?

Failed how? What does the message presented to the user within the
connection error dialog specifically say, and what do you see in your
Tomcat and guacd logs?
