Re: [libvirt-users] noVNC with qemu over ssh

Hi all,
I have a little webserver interface for managing VMs running on a RHEL
6 based HA cluster hosting KVM/qemu VMs. I'd like to use noVNC to
provide access to the hosted VMs, but I am not finding much information
on how to do this (or rather, I can't find it in the large number of
ovirt related posts).
Has anyone done this or could someone point me in the right direction
to docs on how to do this? Trying to even get direct access isn't
getting me far (/usr/bin/novnc_server --vnc localhost:5900 -> click URL
-> enter password, hangs on "Starting VNC handshake").
Thanks!
PS - while testing, iptables and selinux are disabled... I'm trying to
get a most basic setup working
I'm not familiar with noVNC, but from very little I read, it uses
websockets. Libvirt has support for that since 1.0.6:
http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsGraphics
Also, qemu already has VNC server built in - that's why it already
serves VNC data on ports 5900+ (or whatever you configure). So I'm not
sure that you want another VNC server to connect to it (or novnc_server
is not VNC server and I am just blabbing about nothing?).
