Urblauna Guacamole / RDP issues

Resolving connnection problems

There can sometimes be communication issues between the web based RDP service (Guacamole) and the RDP client on the login node.

If you are continuously redirected to the page in the image below then you will need to clean up the processes on the login node.

To do so connect using SSH to u-ssh.dcsr.unil.ch and run the following commands making sure to replace the username ulambda with your own username and the session ids with those returned by the command:

$ loginctl list-sessions | grep ulambda | grep c[1-9]

     c3 123456 ulambda           
    c13 123456 ulambda
    
$ loginctl terminate-session c3 c13    

You will then be able to reconnect via u-web.dcsr.unil.ch
