    Hello,

    Finally managed to install Guacamole using Docker and it seems to be working OK, at least I can connect through SSH. I am currently using VNC over a SSH tunnel to connect to my machine, can this be replicated with Guacamole? The VNC connection setup screen doesn't seem to allow for SSH tunelling (I've seen a similar question from 2011 but no clear answer...)

    Thank you very much,

    The clear answer is: this is not yet supported. If you wish to use Guacamole to connect through an SSH tunnel, you will need to establish the SSH tunnel outside of Guacamole.

    There is an issue in our backlog for adding this support: https://glyptodon.org/jira/browse/GUAC-223

    It is not yet a priority, especially compared to the other things that are currently in progress, but feel free to add to the discussion on the issue linked above.
