Guac connection history via syslog
Hello again,
Is there an easy way to get the connection history usernames/connections out into plain text via syslog?
We have guacd piped out via syslog and can see the usernames/connections via rdp etc, although it appears they may be hashed?

Is there a way to see these usernames/connections in plain text?
A different log somewhere?
It appears the web interface is doing a GET to a mysql database for this info?
Any advice helps!

Guacd has no knowledge of the name of the user who is accessing the connection (this may actually change with GUACAMOLE-1293, to some extent). The Tomcat logs may contain the information you're looking for - you can check catalina.out and see if it's got what you want. If the information is there, you'll just need to redirect the Tomcat output to syslog and you should have it.

Working great with a conf file setup to read catalina.out via imfile module
Appreciate it
