Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Disable NWFilter driver completely when unprivileged

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com&gt; Running libvirtd unprivileged results in a warning message from the NWFilter driver virNWFilterSnoopLeaseFileRefresh:1882 : open("/var/run/libvirt/network/nwfilter.ltmp"): No such file or directory Since it requires privileged network access, this driver should not even run when unprivileged.
