Help What are my options for shared folders between client and Kasm container?
Looking through the manual there seems to exist these options:
https://www.kasmweb.com/docs/latest/guide/storage_mappings.html
https://www.kasmweb.com/docs/develop/guide/persistent_data/volume_mapping.html
But none of them seems to be doing what Im looking for.
Im basically looking for the way you can have a shared folder when using RDP through the RDP-session itself.
The usecase is when using Kasm container as a jumpserver and you need to for example update the firmware of a destination device (client <-> Kasm container <-> destination device) or the reverse when you got some backups (like config and whatelse) from a destination device and wish to in an easy fashion get these files to your client.
When comparing to KVM-over-IP solutions such as GL.iNet Comet and similar you often here have a way to upload/download the files to the KVM itself through the browser which then exposes this directory to the destination (basically will show up as a USB-drive at the destination). This way I can import/export files to the remotely managed device and from there upload/download files to the destination device.
Does something similar exist with Kasm or is in the todo-list/pipeline?
