Hi All,

I'm having an issue where users who log in using the SAML authentication extension are not able to see the connections assigned to their user group's parent group. I have set up parent user groups that contain certain sets of connections that I want to be able to assign to different user groups. For example, I have parent group A with windows RDP connections and parent group B with linux SSH connections. I then assigned user group C as a child group to both user groups A and B. The SAML user is assigned to user group C and is able to see connections that have been directly assigned to user group C, but not the connections assigned to group A or B. However, when I create a local user assigned to the same user group C, I am able to see the connections from all 3 groups. Additionally, if I create a local user with the same username as my SAML user and manually assign group C, the user is able to see connections from all 3 groups even while signing in with SAML.


What you describe _should_ work. Given that you've already confirmed that permissions granted directly to the main group of interest work as expected, it doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with how groups are mapped between your IdP and Guacamole, nor does it sound like there are any issues with the content of the SAML assertion. By testing the same groups with a local user, you've also confirmed that there isn't any issue with the group hierarchy vs. permission inheritance.

I'll try to reproduce the behavior and see what I can see...
