RDP Gateway Docker Compose Installation

Introduction

Soffid allows you to deploy a new docker container with the RDP gateway. The configuration is similar to the sync server configuration.

Prerequisites

The RDP Service is only released as a docker service.

1. Install docker (https://docs.docker.com/install/)

2. Install docker compose (https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)

3. Install Soffid PAM (store container and launcher container) 

You can visit the PAM Jump Server Installation page for more information about how to install PAM

Installation

The steps required to install RDP container are:

1. Create a user

We need to create a user in the pam store container. To do this, we need to connect to the store container.

sudo docker exec -it soffid-pam-store /bin/bash

Once, we are connected to the container, we need to run a script to create the user. This script has two parameters, the user name, and the role. We have to type launcher in the role parameter

root@soffid-pam-store:/# /opt/soffid/tomee/bin/add-user.sh proxyrdp-user launcher
Password: c4ZRcmgemq3nMr1VQJCD1pJRhPbdX5hrmmrP6RX7zBE4HSs3RV3+cGwDdL1WaaqZ
root@soffid-pam-store:/#

As a result of the script, we receive the password for the created user. This password will be needed later when we create the container.

2. Execute the YAML

services:
  ssh-gateway:
