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. 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.
