I've resolved the issue with the file permissions on the recordings. I
still think the cleanest way to playback the recordings, is for the files
to be written with permissions that allow them to be read but I also
realize that not everyone would want this. The most restrictive permissions
on the session recordings is probably the best default for most users.

What I've done on my Guacamole server is to create a webpage that allows me
to browse the recordings. When the webpage is loaded, it scans the
directory that contains the recordings and checks the permissions on each
recording file. If the permissions are 600, it changes them to 666. The
webpage contains a link for each session recording to launch the player.

This is a workable solution for me, so no need to track down how to write
the recordings with 666 permissions.

Thanks, Aaron
