Thanks all, for the explanation (security), and the potential for setting rules. Todd -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Suggestions? You can suppress the prompt by setting rules in /etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.Filecopy So if you have in that file: qube1 qube2 allow In qube1 you can use qvm-move-to-vm qube2 foo and no prompt will appear. The prompt appears because either you have not specified a target qube or you have not given appropriate permissions. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

It will then prompt for the destination qube. Ok. Thanks for the explanation. Still doesn't seem right to me, though. I think I should be able to do the whole copy/move with one command, rather than two. I think it was done for security reasons- having dom0 prompt for the destination is safer than allowing any qube to copy any data to any other qube automatically. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
