Hi
First, I think the next composition.
Client Machine
+--------------+
| +--------+ |
| | VNC | |
| | Viewer | |
| +--------+ |
+-------|------+
|
Management Machine |
+------------------|------------------+
| +--------+ |
| | VNC | |
| | Server | |
| +--------+ |
| | |
| +--------------+ |
| | virt-manager | |
| +--------------+ |
| | |
| +----------+----------+ |
| | | | |
| +-------+ +-------+ +-------+ |
| |Virtual| |Virtual| |Virtual| |
| |machine| |machine| |machine| |
| +-------+ +-------+ +-------+ |
| |
+-------------------------------------+
In this composition, when VNC Viewer of Client Machine can not send
Ctrl+Alt+Del the user cannot send Ctrl+Atl+Del to Virtual Machine.
However, when Virt-manager has the button which sends Ctrl+Alt+Del,
the user can send Ctrl+Alt+Del to Virtual Machine. (Even if the user
used any kind of VNC Viewer)
Therefore, I think that virt-manager has better have the button which
sends Ctrl+Alt+Del.
Thanks,
Masayuki Sunou.
