Hey, thanks for this video. When I first learned about Apache Guac I installed it natively on my server, but that experience left a sour taste in my mouth and felt sloppy. Your video was awesome in explaining how to get it working using docker. I ran through the latest version of your script you have on GitLab, and I have a question about the Portainer implementation: Do you know of any way to "adopt" the stacks that were created by your script so that I can manage the stack natively in Portainer? Right now it is showing "Control over this stack is limited." It would be awesome if I could edit and update the stack in the UI like you did at 35:36.

@AwesomeOpenSource 9 ай бұрын

First, thank you for the compliment. I have an updated Guac video coming out in an couple of weeks. As for the stack question, unfortunately, I don't know how to adopt them into portainer, if it's even possible. I think you could skip those in my script, then go to the gitlab page, and use the compose files to create your stacks in portainer instead.

In the self hosted world, you'll have very few options. RustDesk is probably the best bet these days. But the client installers do take a little configuration by the client user, or you need to use the RustDesk hosted servers, which can be slow at times as they are intended for Demo more than production use. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9Sqe9Bk3a3eYn0.html

Hi Brian. I've been testing guacamole and today after a power outage I found guacamole started as a new container (no data persisted). I used your yml file through portainer editor. I am running docker desktop on a windows 10 machine. Any ideas as to why data is not persisting?

@AwesomeOpenSource Жыл бұрын

I have a volume setup for the postgres db. It's mapped to the config inside the container. Where did you map that for the portainer part of it? You'll want to make sure wherever that portainer volume was mapped before, that you get that same location mapped again. Not sure why a power outage would cause an issue like that.

@rguifa Жыл бұрын

@@AwesomeOpenSource I am still working on it. After the power outage docker had to start again, so did the container. where did I map that? same line as you have: - ./postgres:config. This does not happen on my ubuntu vm since it maps it to the host machine. In windows the host is a vm where the containers run, so my guess is I have to map that to windows somehow.

@rguifa Жыл бұрын

@@AwesomeOpenSource I've got it working now. When I create the container from portainer (stack), the line - ./postgres:/config creates the volume but it maps it to de linux VM that runs on Windows which seems to me is non persistent. To get it to work in docker desktop for Windows, the yml file shuould be saved inside a folder in windows (say D:\docker\guacamole) docker compose up -d will create the container and will map the volume to that folder of the Windows machine which is in fact persistent.

Hello Brian, great video! Thank you. Two questions: A) does totp / https protect a remote win10 machine that exposes rdp port? Is there a way to secure such pc using rdp permissions to deny acess from unknown sites? I have read weird thing related to rdp security. B) I watched your video on ticketing systems, and I wonder whether you know about open source software to keep track of repair history on electronics / pc repair workshop. Keep up with great work!

@AwesomeOpenSource 2 жыл бұрын

So, the totp and https are to protect the webpage / server - which in this case is accessing a machine through rdp. it does not add anything to the rdp session. If you are connecting to remote machines, you'll probably want to setup a VPN connection between the networks, or the remote machine an your server. Off the top of my head, not sure on a repair tracking system. What are you trying to accomplish?

@albertolopez7420 2 жыл бұрын

@@AwesomeOpenSource Thank you so much for your quick reply. In reference to RDP, your reply is what I assumed, the remote computer will depend on VPN or any other mechanism to avoid unintended or unauthorized RDP sessions. OTOH I run an electronics repair shop in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I am looking for software that could allow me to track dates, serial numbers, repair work conducted on equipment as well as parts used for repair, sort of database with repair history. Preventative maintenance schedule is also a goal, but I guess that this is too broad and specific for a single piece of software. Thank you!

Now to the last question: I don't know if a ticketing system that is also an inventory system. But I use Asana for my project management, Asana is like a todo list on steroids and can be used in the free version up to 30 users more or less. Obviously don't store your passwords into Asana, for that use I use bitwarden (I saw Brian uses it as well)

@Mikesco3 2 жыл бұрын

I'm response to the first question, you don't want to expose the RDP port directly or forwarded to the Internet (whether by plugging in a machine straight into an internet modem with no firewall between or by forwarding the RDP port) but the way Brian is using it, is rather safe in my opinion because he's not exposing the port directly, guacamole is translating the session to a web console and the proxy manager is re-routing the connection in the back end, so the only thing you'd see directly from the Internet is the nginx proxy manager.

This is really great Brian. Tell me on windows, does this allow you to have multiple RDP connections? As I think they only allow you 2 connections before they start charging. Could this also be installed on Ubuntu server with out docker. Thanks again for the great content

@AwesomeOpenSource 2 жыл бұрын

So, I'll answer you second question first. Yes, you can absolutely install this manually without Docker. Scott over at @Scottibyte has done this in an LXC through manual install I believe. Check out his video here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/arCifJOentuXmo0.html As for the number of connections, I don't know. I'm not sure that's a licensing issue on the client connection as much as it is on the host being connected to. I have seen some different information and discussion around reddit about other software allowing multiple rdp sessions on a single host outside of Microsoft limits, but I don't recall what it was, or which subreddit I saw it on.

really amazing, thanks. I need the log location with fail2ban but can't find it, any one can help me ?

@AwesomeOpenSource Жыл бұрын

It should be in /var/log/fail2ban.log, but it will be inside the container filesystem. You can add a volume mapping to make it easier to get to. Add this to the volumes section - ./logs:/var/log Then restart the container.

So the way it works in your video is that you have to have a machine already on your list to connect to it. Tell me, what about connecting to a machine OUTSIDE the network. What about a way for a client outside the network to connect so you're able to remote access it? What about unattended access? What about connecting to an Apple machine? Since you're in IT as well, you should know the need for all that. Would be nice to ditch the high cost of Team Viewer.

@AwesomeOpenSource 2 жыл бұрын

You have a lot of questions, and there are many possible answers. 1. Yes, this setup is for pre-defined connections to various machines. Those machines can be on the same network, or on another network (assuming you've setup a VPN or Tunnel to access the other network). Connecting to these machines can happen from anywhere if you setup the URL like I did, and then access it like I did. It just runs in a web browser. 2. For more of a "Support" type connection like TeamViewer, I suggest you check out my video on Remotely. Note, the github page is under a different owner now, but it's still there, still free, and still open source. 3. If you are wanting something really great for Remote access through the browser as a Remote Machine Management tool, then check out my videos on MeshCentral.

@@AwesomeOpenSource thanks for the reply. I've been watching through your videos and don't know if you have anything on Docker containers solely. Currently, I have a few Dell servers that I use Proxmox on. Am I right to assume that I could take a single server, install say 20.04 LTS, and use Docker to run say a website, Openfire or rocket chat, and perhaps Nextcloud? I have 40TB of storage on each server. The issue I see is that near all require port 80/443, though I assume you just need to use port forwarding (I have static IP and a few domains so DNS isn't an issue) to send each sub-domain to the right container? If that is correct, do you have any video on it, or perhaps can do one? How about installing Ubuntu Server on a say 60Gb SSD and creating a pool of 4 10Tb HDDs to install all the containers? Most videos I see all use cloud VPS but not bare metal. Lots of questions I know, but all can be helpful to a lot of people. I subscribed by the way cause I like your content.

@AwesomeOpenSource Жыл бұрын

Your VPS should have a public IP already, so nothing to port forward, but in my case, I port forward 80 and 443 only, to my host running NGinX Proxy Manager, and then let NPM direct traffic requests to any web applications on my internal network.
