Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kvm
Hi all, Please include sasl support into KVM. --snip-- Hi Dustin, sorry if I bother you, but could it be that kvm lacks sasl support for the vnc flag? I checked the debian/control file and saw that sasl was not included. Why? Without it, VNC only would work over x509, but there are nearly no vnc viewers that support x509. So I consider this a lack of security. I enabled vnc with: -vnc :1,sasl,acl The acl_show vnc.username says: unknown list Please, if this is a bug, can you rebuild kvm with sasl-support? Hi Christian, This may be an easy thing to fix, if the necessary build dependency is in the Ubuntu main archive (rather than universe). FWIW, qemu-kvm/configure suggests cyrus-sasl, which is in main. So, like Dustin said, please file a bug and we should be able to get that in lickity-split. thanks, -serge I see several sasl-related packages in the archive... Specifically which one are you requesting that we build qemu-kvm against? Sorry it took me so long to find this email...ideally, you'd file this as a wishlist bug against qemu-kvm in Launchpad.net, and I probably would have gotten to it by now :-) Thanks, -- :-Dustin --snap-- Thanks Christian ** Affects: kvm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Please include sasl support into KVM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/621639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to kvm in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
