Sounds interesting. What does "neatless" mean by the way? :)
Just tried that, and it seem to want to bounce me to some other domain
(hard to make out) like unifiedsessionsmanager.eu or something, which
doesn't load.
Is everything set up ok? :/

My first guess is that it's a mis-translation of "seamless".

I had no problems loading the page, even with noscript.

Taking a look through the site and docs, I didn't see anything related to libvirt.
Arno-Can, what does this have to do with the libvirt project?
Kind of seems like spam. :(

Hello Justin,

The relation is indirect for now.
The managed task is the same - the management of user sessions to
various hypervisors.
The difference is that the UnifiedSesionsManager utilizes the
commandline interfaces, not yet
a library interface. This has pros and cons.
One main advance of this project is simple integration of new
hypervisors and applications,
and the handling of huge amounts of VMs with an automatic inventory
scanner and a CSV text
database. Thus it is for example quite good usable for the handling of
development, debugging
and test environments for the development of libvirt.
The main intention was to present this as an R&D utilitiy, but also as
an alternate interface,
which emphasizes the personal customization of workspaces and sets of
services.
The following versions are intended to use additionally a library based
API in combination with
distributed server daemons and an LDAP storage, thus most probably apply
libvirt and potentially
contribute to libvirt too.
Kind of seems like spam. :(
Regards,
Justin Clift

Well,
you're right, neatless is a little 'germish', will change this
a.s.a.p.

Hello Osier,
first of all I have to apologise for answering so late, had some
difficulties
with my mail mailbox for libvirt and lost the data until the 18th. This is
from the luckily forgotton old subscription-account.

Neatless is in the sense, that the interface is almost the same for all
supported
hypervisors. This is for example:
->ctys -t qemu -a create=l:tst100 myUser@myHost
creates a QEMU instance
->ctys -t vmw -a create=l:tst101 myUser@myHost1
creates a VMware instance, one of: Sever/Player/Workstation
->ctys -t vnc -a create=l:tst101 myUser@myHost1
creates a VNC desktop
->ctys -t x11 -a create=l:tst101 myUser@myHost1
creates a X-Terminal session
...
There are some more options, but the core-set is quite similar.
This has the advantage for presenting a small interface with some standard
methods and a superset of common attributes.
When now a generic option has to be applied, this is the same for all
hypervisors,
which I call here session types.
For example: The client of a session should be requested to be executed
locally,
whereas the server is performing remote:
->ctys -t qemu -a create=l:tst100 -L CF myUser@myHost
creates a QEMU instance on 'myHost', creates a SSH tunnel from localhost
to the QEMU instance, where the display ID is managed automatically, and
last starts a local VNC client which is attached to the local stub of
the SSH
tunnel.
Antyhing is done automatically, just by setting '-L CF', where CF stands
for
CONNECTIONFORWARDING, in distinction to DISPLAYFORWARING, which is
similar to the X11 display forwarding.
->ctys -t vnc -a create=l:tst101 -L CF myUser@myHost1
This does basically the same, but starts and interconnects here a VNC
desktop
instead of a QEMU instance.
Same for VMW, XEN and VirtualBox, where just the consoles has to be varied,
e.g. for VirtualBox the RDP, or VBOX instead of VNC.
Thus the main emphasis for the project is still the support of an
interface, which
is almost the same - standard core - for all supported session types.
With some specific superset for each, providing enhanced features.
There are some slides on the home page which depict the interface, I tried
to describe the basic idea of service-management and composition also in a
short whitepaper.

Yes, I have one domain-only for the org, and redirect this to the server
provider,
which provide their own, here e.g. unifiedsessionsmanager.eu for english,
unifiedsessionsmanager.de for german. For transparency I didn't rename the
domain name, just kept and forwarded it.

It should work, the site is just simple HTML, no scripting.
The only extra is the URL-forwarding from the domain provider
to the webspace provider, should be harmless.
I have no difficulties from Munich, neither by telco, nor by cable provider.
Let me please know when still not functional.
