Hi,
I am sure I am missing something simple but I can't seem to figure it
out. I am trying to allow a non-root user rw access to libvirt 0.6.2.
The user is a member of the libvirtd group,
unix_sock_group="libvirtd", and
unix_sock_rw_perms=0770. However, 'virsh list' doesn't seem to work.
The permissions seem correct
srwxrwx--- 1 root libvirtd 0 2009-04-08 17:32 libvirt-sock
srwxrwxrwx 1 root libvirtd 0 2009-04-08 17:32 libvirt-sock-ro
When I strace 'virsh list', it doesn't attempt to connect to
/usr/local/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock but when I strace 'virsh
--readonly list', it successfully connects to the "-ro" socket.
configure reported that polkit wasn't configured. This is on a system
with Xen.
Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Niraj
