The guacamole-server package is a set of software which forms the
|
|
basis of the Guacamole stack. It consists of guacd, libguac, and
|
|
several protocol support libraries.
|
|
|
|
guacd is the Guacamole proxy daemon used by the Guacamole web
|
|
application and framework. As JavaScript cannot handle binary
|
|
protocols (like VNC and remote desktop) efficiently, a new test-based
|
|
protocol was developed which would contain a common superset of the
|
|
operations needed for efficient remote desktop access, but would
|
|
be easy for JavaScript programs to process. guacd is the proxy which
|
|
translates between arbitrary protocols and the Guacamole protocol.
