Re: [libvirt] iface-list command in virsh
Hi,
Yes I know that, and I use the fedora 12 distro, with netcf support and
libvirt rpm are compiled with netcf support. That's why it works when I am
root, but only when I am root

The current interface driver used in combination with libvirtd is
nefcf [1] based. If your libvirt is compiled without netcf then there
will be no interface support for QEMU, Xen and so on.
You'll also need to have a distro (e.g. Fedora) that supports netcf or
is supported by netcf, because netcf handles the interface
configuration files and those are in different locations of have other
distro dependent differences.
