The virt-manager console is basically just a plain old boring VNC client. It uses GTK-VNC to establish its VNC network connection, and that doesn't do anything unusual AFAIK. We use getaddrinfo() to resolve the hostname, and then try each of its results in turn, until we succesfully connect to the VNC server. We don't explicitly bind() to the client port, just let the kernel pick it for us. The code in question, is the "gvnc_open_host" method from gvnc.c, which starts at about line 2910 http://freehg.org/u/aliguori/gtk-vnc.hg/file/d68935d582f0/src/gvnc.c Regards, Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :| _______________________________________________ et-mgmt-tools mailing list et-mgmt-tools@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/et-mgmt-tools
