I need to add user root to Kali container. Can I add any parameter to command sudo docker run --rm -it --shm-size=512m -p 6901:6901 -e VNC_PW=password kasmweb/<image>:<tag> ?

Yes, you are free to add any docker run flag you want , including --user root

OK, thank you. Another question - how to secure connection, can I change username and password for authentication? Default is kasm_user / password.

Can anybody answer me?

For the greatest level of security, use the full Kasm Workspaces platform, which is does all the following and more

  • Central authentication and user management using LDAP, SAML, or Kasm's built in authentication
  • Group based security policies
  • Centralized logging
  • Optional two-factor authentication

For using a kasm docker image directly, without Workspaces, you can change the password as documented in Docker Hub and in GitHub in the example docker run command. The username is hard coded I believe, if you run the container directly without using the Workspaces platform.
