The argument is not a TCP port.

It has the same meaning as "display" in the X world.
Start KVM with -vnc :0 (or :1, :2, etc. - in this way you can manage
multiple independent VMs),  then connect with vncviewer :0 (or
123.123.123.123:0 for remote connections).

[kvm-devel] Using the VNC option

2007-08-24 Thread Cam Macdonell

Hello,

I'm a little stumped in running the -vnc option for KVM.  I am unable to 
connect my vncviewer.  Even just running through localhost won't work. 
I specify -vnc localhost:5001, but vncviewer won't connect.  Can someone 
point me to a simple example of using the vnc option.  The man page 
refers to a "display" as the argument to -vnc, I'm unclear what this means.

Thanks,
Cam
