Hello,
I've been unable to connect to a remote host from within my network
using the following argument.
virsh/virt-manager -c qemu+ssh://user@host:port/system
I've tried libssh & libssh2 as well. Using ssh just prompts me for the
host password indefinitely. When using libssh2 the connection is rejected.
There was an issue with virsh corrected by libvirt 3.4.0 where virsh
would continue prompting for password as a result of polkit and
pkttyagent interactions
See:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1374126
or the upstream commit:
https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commit;h=2453501fc8
Perhaps that's what you're bumping into at least w/r/t the indefinite
password prompting.

The host computer is using a custom ssh port which I've added to the
above argument. Neither box has an enabled root user.
Remote box
$ cat /etc/debian_version
9.3
$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_7.4p1 Debian-10+deb9u2, OpenSSL 1.0.2l 25 May 2017
$ virsh --version
3.0.0
Host box
$ cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)
$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_7.4p1, OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips 26 Jan 2017
$ virsh --version
3.2.0
Any help is greatly appreciated.
