I have the same issue on 7 > machines. have you tried a different connection URI?: --------------<----------------- $ virsh -c qemu:///system 'list' -------------->----------------- If not explicitly stated, the virsh binary uses the 'qemu:///session' URI (at least under debian). See also .. VIRSH(1): ----------------------------------<--------------------------------------- qemu:///system "connect locally as root to the daemon supervising QEmu and KVM domains" qemu:///session "connect locally as a normal user to his own set of QEmu and KVM domains" ---------------------------------->--------------------------------------- Please note that in order for the 'qemu:///system' URI to work probably the user must be part of the 'libvirt' group. This way you won't have to touch the permission set of any of the respective sockets. I hope this helps ;) Cheers Jan
