I've installed libvirt-0.9.13 from ports on my freebsd machine.

I started libvirtd:

$ ps awwux | grep libvirtd
root       11470   0.0  0.4  103100  31948  -  I    10:41PM   0:00.35 libvirtd -v -d

$ sudo virsh --connect qemu:///system
error: no connection driver available for No connection for URI qemu:///system
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

I am sure I am missing something obvious.

Thanks in advance,
Hiren
