Arrrgggh no, please no, no, no :-( The crux of the problem is the word 'mostly' here. The NMap 'ncat' program doesn't support connecting to UNIX domain sockets. This functionality is *critical* for libvirt to connect to remote servers via our SSH tunnel facility. You've now broken the ability to connect to rawhide virt hosts :-( $ virsh -c qemu+ssh://root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/system error: End of file while reading data: 2012-07-19 10:49:00.415+0000: 10202: info : libvirt version: 0.9.13, package: 1.fc17 (Unknown, 2012-07-02-12:05:10, t500wlan.home.berrange.com) nc: invalid option -- 'U' Ncat: Try `--help' or man(1) ncat for more information, usage options and help.
