Public bug reported: Hello,
I am trying to give every VM one my host a different password for the VNC connections, but this doesn't work. According to the libvirt documentation this should be possible: http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsGraphics "The passwd attribute provides a VNC password in clear text." A "virsh dumpxml" gives me: <graphics type='vnc' port='5901' autoport='yes' keymap='en-us'/> When i output this to a file and manually add the "passwd" attribute it gets lost when defining the VM again with "virsh define" and no VNC password is set. I am aware of the fact that i can set a VNC password in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf, but this password is the same for ALL the VM's. In our envirioment i have different system administrators for each VM so i need different VNC passwords for the VM's. Is this possible? When reading "man kvm-qemu" it is not possible to set a password with KVM: " "password" Require that password based authentication is used for client connections. The password must be set separately using the "change" command in the pcsys_monitor" Can somebody clearify this, is setting a VNC per VM possible? ** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Not able to set a per VM VNC password in the XML https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
