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.
