[Guacd](https://guacamole.apache.org/) - Apache Guacamole is a clientless remote desktop gateway. It supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH. This container is only the backend server component needed to use The official or 3rd party HTML5 frontends.
Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).
Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `<external>:<internal>` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container.
This is a backend only service, to leverage Guacd server you need to use either the official Java frontend [guacamole-client](https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client) or an open source alterantive like [guacamole-lite](https://github.com/vadimpronin/guacamole-lite).

We publish various [Docker Mods](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-mods) to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) can be accessed via the dynamic badge above.
