There are some JIRA issues out there that deal with making shared sessions available on the home page to users, so that functionality is probably not far off; however, switching between read-only and read-write and passing control of a session around between multiple users ("Passing the Ball" in WebEx) is not something that's possible in Guacamole right now, and I don't think there is a JIRA issue in for that one, yet. -Nick --f4f5e80762f009e4b8056813cf20 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

However, if on step 4 the browser is authenticated to Guacamole as a
different user, the pasted link seems to open the top level connection and<= br> not the shared connection, so RDP of course logs the first user out.


Interesting.=C2=A0 I'm not sure if= this is intentional or not - I'll have to play with it and see what my= experience is.

What I am eventually trying to achieve is that I can hand a URL to a set of=
users, they all see the shared connection and one of them has control - the=
others read-only, but that control can be passed between users.=C2=A0 I had=
assumed for that that everyone must be logged in and then some API call
would determine who was read-only and who not.=C2=A0 Is there another way I= might
achieve what I want?
