Hi, I have a virtualization host running KVM and libvirt 0.9.12 (on Debian unstable). I would like to connect with virt-viewer 0.5.4 from a different host to a domain that has Display Spice configured as graphics interface. I can connect to the KVM host using virsh --connect=qemu+ssh://mh@fan.local/system and start m KVM domain from there, so I guess that authentication is just fine. However, virt-viewer --connect=qemu+ssh://mh@fan.local/system <domain> does not work. The easy issue was that virt viewer issues a "nc fan.local 5900" on the remote host, while the Display Spice agent listens on 127.0.0.1 only. I could fix that by checking the "listen on all IP addresses" box in the Display Spice configuration in virt-manager. After that, I could see the TCP connection to the Spice agent on the remote host succeed when tcpdumping on the KVM host's lo interface. When I invoke virt-viewer when the domain is not running, it says "Waiting for the guest domain to start", and changes to "Connecting to graphic server" when I start the domain. When I invoke virt-viewer when the domain is already running, it immediately says "Connecting to graphic server", but the domain's console does never show up. When I invoke virt-viewer --connect=qemu:///system <domain> directly on the KVM host, the console shows up alright. On the KVM host, virt-viewer --connect=qemu+ssh:///system <domain> gives the same behavior as the remote invocation, while virt-viewer --direct --connect=qemu+ssh:///system <domain> does. So I guess there is something wrong with the tunneling of the Spice session through ssh. Am I doing something wrong? I would appreciate any hints.
