Guacamole makes RDP or VNC desktops available via html5 inside EGroupware.
EGroupware supplies account information, authentication via OpenID Connect
and allows to manage connections.
#### EGroupware Guacamole app does the following:
* Installs all tables (or views) for Apache Guacamole
* Everything account-related is a view, not a table
* EGroupware UI to create connections (Admin >> Guacamole >> Connections)
* One has to use EGroupware to assign permissions to connections
* Guacamole UI can be used to set advanced connection options
> The app requires accounts stored in SQL. A workaround for using LDAP or ActiveDirectory for account storage (not just authentication), is to regulary use setup to migrate users and groups to SQL.
