This KVM hosts is CentOS6.0 and running KVM guest and xrdp is installed

And I'm using fedora 14's Terminal Server Client. After I started Virtual Machine Manager and try to connect to the

following error happened. Is there any way to resolve this error? I know that when I use VNC server , this error does not happened, but I want to use Terminal Server rather than VNC, because this doesn't need extra software for windows client PCs. -- Error snip -- Virtual Machine Manager Connection Failure Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon.

Hi, virt-manager is runnig on the KVM Host. I want to do something like method-1 instead of method-2. --[Method 1]-- <User Client PC>: + Windows PC with Remote Desktop Client 　or + Linux with Terminal Server Client <KVM Host>: + CentOS or Red Hat Linux + Virt Manager + Guest OS + XRDP (Remote Desktop Server) instead of --[Method 2]-- <User Client PC>: + Windows PC with VNCviewer or + Linux with VNCviewer <KVM Host>: + CentOS or Red Hat Linux + Virt Manager + Guest OS + VNC Server - Hisao On 02/13/2012 11:36 AM, Trey Dockendorf wrote: > > On Feb 12, 2012 8:02 PM, "Hisao Taguchi"<hisao.taguchi@uniadex.co.jp<mailto:hisao.taguchi@uniadex.co.jp>> wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > I am trying to operate the remote KVM host's virt-manager thru Terminal Server Client. > > > > This KVM hosts is CentOS6.0 and running KVM guest and xrdp is installed from "epel" repo. > > And I'm using fedora 14's Terminal Server Client. > > > > After I started Virtual Machine Manager and try to connect to the hypervisor, > > following error happened.
