Printing funcionality and FTP
Hello.
I’m new with Apache Guacamole and I am working in some projects in my
company, I have some doubts that I like to clarify with you.
1. How Apache Guacamole printing functionality works? I find information
about activate the functionality, but we would like to know how works.
2. When we use the FTP function to transfer files, we have problems with
the size of the name of the files because with long names, we obtain an
error and we need to reduce the size of the name to 20 characters or less,
this maximum size is configurable or how can we use long name sizes in file
with FTP transfers?
Thank you very much for your help
Regards.
Ricardo

The RDP protocol defines a mechanism for redirecting devices, including
printers. Guacamole emulates a printer, exposes that emulated printer over
the RDP connection to the RDP server, and filters received print data
through GhostScript to generate a PDF. The PDF data is streamed over the
Guacamole connection using the file transfer mechanisms built into the
Guacamole protocol.

Nothing within Guacamole defines any such limit. If you are seeing such an
issue, it must be something outside Guacamole causing that behavior, such
as a proxy in front of Guacamole or a limitation of the filesystem storing
the uploaded files.
Guacamole's filename limits depend on the protocol in use: 2048 bytes for
SFTP paths, and 4096 bytes for RDP paths. No part of Guacamole uses FTP.
