[libvirt-users] virt-install with set vnc password
Hi Guy, Anyone know how we can set up the vnc password during using virt-install command ? # virt-install \ --connect qemu:///system \ --name demo \ --ram 500 \ --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/demo.img,size=5 \ --network network=default,model=virtio \ --vnc \ --cdrom /dev/cdrom Regards, Peter

Try this option instead of --vnc Use --graphics vnc,password=foobar That should work. -- Mohammed Naser — vexxhost ----------------------------------------------------- D. 514-316-8872 D. 800-910-1726 ext. 200 PIN. 223141AA E. mnaser@vexxhost.com W. http://vexxhost.com

Are you sure that you're running the latest virt-install -- because latest does have that option. If you refer to the manpages of the latest version: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=python-virtinst.git;a=blob;f=man/en/virt-... I recommend you update your virt-install version in order to be able to use that option, otherwise, you might be limited in your options. You could add a command that sets it manually by connecting to qemu (might be more complicated). If it's the same password, I think you could leave it in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/QEMUSwitchToLibvirt#change_vnc_PASSWORD Let me know if this helps. -- Mohammed Naser — vexxhost ----------------------------------------------------- E. mnaser@vexxhost.com W. http://vexxhost.com

You are right, there is such option, may i know what version of virt-install you are running ? I am using root@cloudnode2:~/new# virt-install --version 0.500.1 root@cloudnode2:~/new# Regards, Peter

Hi Peter, I am not currently running any release on a machine I have direct access to right now. However, according to Git, that release is 22 months old (unless it's backported). However, according to Git, the manual page was updated to include it with virtinst 0.500.5 The current latest version is 0.600.0 It's up to you on what you'd like to do at this point. Good luck! -- Mohammed Naser — vexxhost ----------------------------------------------------- D. 514-316-8872 D. 800-910-1726 ext. 200 E. mnaser@vexxhost.com W. http://vexxhost.com
