Hi Kapil, If you run CloudStack in FIPS-mode, it does not work for now.
According to https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/system/vnc-security.html#with-passwords Password authentication is not supported when operating in FIPS 140-2 compliance mode as it requires the use of the DES cipher. However, CloudStack generates VNC password for all VMs, VMs are also started on hypervisors (for example KVM hosts) with a VNC password. -Wei On Tue, Feb 20, 2024 at 9:55 AM Kapil Bhuskute <kbhusk...@qualys.com.invalid> wrote: > Hello, > We have a POD setup with CloudStack 4.19 latest version and all schema > with a Zone, POD, and cluster has been setup using a Advance Shared > networking Architecture. > We have a couple of VMs spun up on this environment now and were trying to > access its VM console via VNC port.
