I use --connect=qemu+ssh://root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/system virtualname greetings Patrick Op 30-12-14 om 15:46 schreef Bill Gee:
Hello everyone - I am trying to use virt-viewer to connect to KVM virtual machines running on a CentOS7 host. It works great when running directly on the host, but I have not been able to figure out the magic connection string to make it work from another computer. On the host, I set selinux to "permissive" and stopped the firewalld service. No change, so it is not related to them. Almost every command I try gives an immediate dialog box that says "Unable to connect to libvirt with URI ...". The only command line that gets me anything different is this: virt-viewer --connect xen+ssh://root@practice7.billgee.local/ dd2a2ba7-707d-42b5-8c83-94b11ce6e269 This will ask me for the root password on the host machine and then gives me the same "Unable to connect" message. I tried it with a regular user account instead of root and got the same result. I have tried it with and without the "root@" string. I tried using both the UUID and the domain name of the guest. I tried all of the following protocols: ssh:// qemu:// qemu:/// xen:// xen+ssh:// qemu_ssh:// qemu+ssh:// If I open a regular ssh shell using the +X parameter and then launch virt- viewer, it works. The connection string in that case is --connect=qemu:///system Any suggestions?
