Hi dear all, I have the following issue : I have a libvirtd intstalled on an ubuntu desktop. The libvirtd is listening on port 16509 (options listen_tls = 0 and listen_tcp = 1) On the desktop I have a virtualbox installed with a running VM : "styx32-dry-run3" I want to control my VM remotely by using libvirt. I performed following tests : 1)Local virsh running fine : virsh -c vbox:///session list Id Name State ---------------------------------------------------- 2 styx32-dry-run3 running 2)Using the tcp port is showing an empty list: virsh -c vbox+tcp://127.0.0.1:16509/session list Id Name State ---------------------------------------------------- 3)net-list command works virsh -c vbox+tcp://127.0.0.1:16509/session net-list Name State Autostart Persistent ---------------------------------------------------------- vboxnet0 active no autostart yes Can any of you help me please, I really don't understand why my VM is not showing up in the 2 ) list .. and I really don't know where to look at :-( Kind regards Francois
