connectin error, after shared profile deleted
Hi I was wondering if this was a known issue/feature? I could not find any
notes on this.
I tested the following scenario.
User1 connects to their RDP1
User 1 goes to their share menu and selects "ReadOnlyShare1" (just a
name)
grab that URL and send to another USER2 , but that just happens to be ME
at the same remote IP but in a different browser brand.
So now USER1 is controling stuff and USER 2 is watching
-
ADMIN goes in and deletes Profile "ReadOnlyShare1" from that RDP1
connection.
no affect on USER2 as all is still viewable. and USER1 still working....
USER1 goes to home screen. and back in (not disconnecting) and USER2 still
connected in view .
USER1, "Disconnects" and goes back to the home screen. At this point
USER2 does disconnected.
....now the issue.
User1 goes to reconnect back to RDP1 (I can't remember If I did a full
logout and login to the guacamole interface at this point ), and then sees
the message
"Connection error...Exhausted the simultaneous connection limit for an
individual user...." USER2 window still open but with disconnect error
on screen.
Then closed the USER2 browser. and no difference. Closed all browsers...
no difference
so. basically I am stuck in the situation where the active sessions shows
USER1 still connected to the RDP1 connection internally. and could not
lock back in to that RDP1 connection
For now, until reboot or guacd restart, I was able to just increase the
connection limit for that user to 2 and it works. but there is still that
zombie connection active.
You question: Why delete a share profile while it is in use?
Answer: Because sh*t happens and things gotta adapt :) . and its good to
know security wise that connections are not killed right away if the share
profile gets removed. (but that would be a nice feature. yes i noticed
'anonymous' int the active connection logs :))
