Re: VirtViewer and TCP Keepalives

[Colin Coe <colin.coe@xxxxxxxxx>]

OK, using my colleagues F19 PC, I was able to get an strace of remote-viewer. 

grepping for setsockopt on the strace output shows

So remote-viewer is sending keep alives...

Back to wondering why, after 30 minutes of inactivity, the SPICE sessions become unusable in our environment.

I'll wait til Friday (not in the office tomorrow and working from home ATM) and try from my colleagues PC (F19) as that has virt-viewer 0.5.6

Thanks

Ah hmm this is too old to be able to open the .vv file, support was added
in 0.5.5. I'd say you are missing some certificates for the SSL connection.
You can get the CA certificate from the IP of your RHEV/oVirt instance,
wget https://ovirt.example.com/ca.crt and then pass this to remote-viewer
using --spice-ca-file=ca.crt. You should also check if the .vv file defines
a host subject, and if so, pass it with --spice-host-subject.
