[libvirt-users] virt-sandbox-service

Is there any documentation/tutorial that explains how to use virt-sandbox-service? After looking at some writeups about virt-sandbox-service, this looks like a good tool for something I need to do. But, following the "examples" I cannot get anything to work correctly. With a simple xfce install with httpd, lighttpd, and libvirt-sandbox installed, I tried: 1. virt-sandbox-service create -C -u lighttpd.service webserver1 which produced a python traceback?? 2. virt-sandbox-service create -C -u httpd.service webserver2 Which appeared to work correctly but when I tried: virt-sandbox-service start webserver2 I got an error message saying that "start" was not valid??? 3. On another system with lighttpd and httpd already installed and able to run, I updated libvirt and friends to the preview version. My virtual systems seem to run OK. I then installed libvirt-sandbox and tried: virt-sandbox-service create -C -u httpd.service tstserver which got some error messages about sockets. I assume that this stuff has to work for someone. HELP! Gene

I assume that this stuff has to work for someone. Never mind ... enough googling finally produced the needed info which is: http://sandbox.libvirt.org/quickstart/ and http://sandbox.libvirt.org/networking/
BTW, it would be nice if the quick-start info also pointed to the on on networking. While the networking is obvious once I read the document, it was not so obvious without reading the document. Gene
