Guacamole Installation

Basic stuff

Guac Server

Required stuff:

sudo apt install libcairo2-dev
sudo apt install libjpeg-turbo8-dev
sudo apt install libpng-dev
sudo apt install libtool-bin
sudo apt install libossp-uuid-dev

sudo apt install libvncclient1
#sudo apt install freerdp2-dev

Configuring:

Guac Client

Install tomcat:

sudo apt install tomcat9
sudo cp ~/Downloads/guacamole-1.3.0.war /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/
systemctl restart tomcat9

Note: after copying the war file to the webapps directory, and restarting Tomcat, it will un-jar the war file into guacamole-1.3.0. This makes the file accessible at http://localhost:8080/guacamole-1.3.0. To make the URL more convenient, just move the unpacked directory to guacamole and then delete the war file:

mv /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/guacamole-1.3.0 /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/guacamole
rm /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/guacamole-1.3.0.war

The guad daemon must be restarted:

sudo /etc/init.d/guacd start

The Guacamole web will now be available at http://localhost:8080/guacamole.

Configure guacd

cd /etc
mkdir guacamole
cd guacamole
mkdir lib
mkdir extensions

Edit guocamole.properties and enter:

# Hostname and port of guacamole proxy
guacd-hostname: localhost
guacd-port:     4822

Edit user-mapping.xml

<user-mapping>
    <!-- Per-user authentication and config information -->
    <authorize username="foo" password="bar">
        <protocol>vnc</protocol>
        <param name="hostname">127.0.0.1</param>
        <param name="port">5901</param>
        <param name="password">nitnarcu</param>
    </authorize>
</user-mapping>

Restart guacd:

/etc/init.d/guacd restart

Xvnc

apt install xterm
apt install tightvncserver
apt install wmaker

MagicDraw Setup

Download MagicDraw_190_sp4_no_install.zip

TBD

Install fonts for MagicDraw – arial to begin with
...or install Helvetica and figure out how to configure font substitution
Edit the wmaker menus to add MagicDraw, delete all the unneeded stuff
Make some tweaks to the way MagicDraw works.
