Libvirt does not (yet) allow remote connections to qemu://host/session. You'd first have to figure out how to patch libvirt to allow remote session connections; part of the problem is that with qemu:///system, there is a daemon running that is always listening for remote connections, but with qemu:///session, since libvirtd is only auto-started as needed, there is no easy way to guarantee that the remote machine is running a libvirtd process as the correct user. > > virsh and other tools support these connections just fine. No, virsh does NOT support remote session connections, at least not intentionally. If it works for you, it is a pure accident. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
