Re: [libvirt-users] Virsh+QEMU, SSH issue on compiled libvirt

Just changing # define LIBVIRTD_PRIV_UNIX_SOCKET LOCALSTATEDIR "/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock" # define LIBVIRTD_PRIV_UNIX_SOCKET_RO LOCALSTATEDIR "/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro" To # define LIBVIRTD_PRIV_UNIX_SOCKET "/var" "/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock" # define LIBVIRTD_PRIV_UNIX_SOCKET_RO "/var" "/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro" Fixed the problem and things worked fine. It would be nice for a client only builds to be able to control through a ./configure argument or through some other .conf file where the server expects to find its socket file.

That said, I am wondering why the client has to know where the server maintains its libvirt-sock files? Can't client and the server both talk in relative path terms instead of absolute?
