How did you name your connections?

Also, I don't have previews, any ideas why not?

The connection name is the first line of the connection in the xml file

<connection name="VNC host">

The previews only come up after you've connected. Until you connect it's just a little blank box or something like that.

@scottalanmiller /etc/guacamole/user-mapping.xml seems to be the wrong location for the standard xml file. Can you provide the location with 0.9.13 which was installed on my system please?

I noticed that Guacamole is in the repos

How do you monitor repos ? and who does that ? do you get any sleep at night ?

Joking it seems like good idea to be always up to date, but abit crazy.

I usually use Fedora NoVNC machine, and install rdesktop in it and remote like crazy + Ultra VNC under wine works great. However that said Guacamole looks much more neat.

Thanks for the guide.

Oh I don't pay attention to them. I just went to install it the long way and figured I'd try to see if it was available in EPEL or something.

It should be in the guacamole home location, whatever that is. You can search for it quickly with find / -name user-mapping.xml

or you can look in the guacamole.properties: area to see what it is set to if something unusual.

You might need to create it.

NP. I have a feeling that it is blank (and might not exist) until you make users yourself. Been a while, but that is a common approach and seems familiar here.
