Description

In VNC connections, it would be useful to have a "XDMCP" toggle option which makes when enabled to automatically allocate VNC port to each new connection to XDMCP enabled servers so users can have multi sessions over VNC to linux servers.

Example:

• XDMCP: on
• User1 connects to server1 via VNC connection, guacamole connects to server1:5900
• User2 connects to server1 via VNC connection, guacamole connects to server1:5901
• User1 and User2 can now use server1 in parallel leveraging XDMCP

This would provide real multi session "remote desktop" experience to VNC connections in guacamole.
