No, that is fine. I forgot about the fact that 'virtproxyd' is required when you want to use TLS because I always use SSH as transport. > And even if so then my suggestion - to explain & include all that, that > modular relevance to certain operations, in man pages - I still share. > That will certainly safe admins like myself, good chunks of time. The man page for 'virtqemud' states in second paragraph: The virtqemud daemon only listens for requests on a local Unix domain socket. Remote off-host access and backwards compatibility with legacy clients expecting libvirtd is provided by the virtproxy daemon.
