Reverse VNC
Hi,
Based on the ticket from https://glyptodon.org/jira/browse/GUAC-691 it
mention that I need to open a port connection from within Guacamole
To establish a reverse connection with VNC, you must, in order:
1. Open the connection within Guacamole
2. Connect to the specified port (:3333 in your case) on the Guacamole
server with the VNC client
May I know the steps to open the port? Any documentation on that?
Thanks

Yes, that's version 0.9.10; we had problems with reverse VNC never
displaying in Guacamole under 0.9.9
Is that the full snippet from your user-mapping.xml? There seem to be some
tags missing, or I am confused.

hi,
this is my config setting in user-mapping.xml
<connection name="VNC Server 155">
<protocol>vnc</protocol>
5500
true
30000
true
</connection>
most of the time, i'm getting "Connected to Guacamole. Waiting for
response...". i've to retry lot of times before manage to connect. it works
all the time if i use tightvnc client and server as testing but not when
using guacamole as client
do i need to manually open the port 5500? i'm using 0.9.9 btw.
from your other post

you mention you have succeed nearly all the time after upgrade to latest
version. is it version 0.9.10?

You're going to need to configure the reverse VNC connection in Guacamole as
described in the manual. Basically there's a setting you need in your xml
config file that indicates the connection is for reverse VNC. If you are
using database authentication I believe you will have to manually insert a
record into the connection parameters table indicating that this connection
is to be made by reverse VNC.
Then just open up the connection in Guacamole. This will start up a VNC
listener, and you'll then need to connect from the server.
