As the iface-list command doesn't work, I'm trying to
get physical interface of a host via nodedev-list, but it doesn't give me
bridges, like br0 for example (which exists anyway). How can I retrieve
available bridges of a host ?

Is there a way to give root privileges to the process
via setcap ?

Hi,
I'm trying to list physical interface of a remote
tcp host via the C API and it fails. I have tried to use virsh iface-list
in remote TCP connection and it fails also. I have trying on the libvirt host
with my normal account and it fails also, but when I connect under root
account on the libvirt host, iface-list works. Any clue
?
When you run virsh locally as non-root, it
connects to qemu://session, which doesn't have root privileges, and the iface-*
commands won't work (because netcf requires root to run). If you run virsh as
root, you will be connected to qemu://system, which has root, and iface-* will
work.
The failure to work when connecting to a remote libvirtd is
puzzling, though.
