[jira] [Created] (GUACAMOLE-195) Support for HTTP Header-Based Authentication

Nick Couchman created GUACAMOLE-195:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Support for HTTP Header-Based Authentication
                 Key: GUACAMOLE-195
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-195
             Project: Guacamole
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: guacamole, guacamole-client
    Affects Versions: 0.9.10-incubating
            Reporter: Nick Couchman
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.9.12-incubating


Many SSO solutions and reverse proxies support authenticating users and passing the authentication information via an HTTP header, the most common of which is REMOTE_USER.  This authentication extension supports ingesting REMOTE_USER, or a value defined in guacamole.properites, and using that to determine the user.

PR is 111, but needs to be rebased and renamed to match this issue.
