Just to add a little context to what Shantan has been trying to do.
We have libvirt 1.0 from standard fedora RPMs on a few standard Fedora 17
servers used as virtualization hosts
[root@cnh-nehalem-1 ~]# libvirtd --version
libvirtd (libvirt) 1.0.0
We are able to use virsh from these standard installs to connect between
servers through
virsh -c qemu+ssh://sarvi@libvirthost/system
This has been working.
What we are now trying to do is to
1. compile a slightly newer libvirt-1.0.2 on of these servers
2. Install them into a non standard location like
./configure --prefix=/users/sarvi/nonstddir
This is your problem. By specifying a different prefix, your new
libvirt client is going to be looking for the libvirtd socket
in /users/sarvi/nonstddir/var/lib/libvirt/libvirt-sock instead
of in /var/lib/libvirt/libvirt-sock
The --prefix you use to compile your libvirt must match the settings
used for the target libvirt you are connecting to.
