Does the mouse work when running remote(virt)-viewer directly from your Mac to the same CentOS guest using the mentioned instructions[1]?

You need to make sure that the other "native" CentOS-machine can connect properly to the Host running the Guest via a resolvable address, because it will want to establish an encrypted session with the Host´s fqdn. /K > > Thanks for the help! > > > > Sent from my iPhone > > > On Feb 11, 2014, at 1:27 AM, Karli Sjöberg <karli.sjob...@slu.se> wrote: > > > >> On Mon, 2014-02-10 at 12:04 -0500, Drew Showers wrote: > >> The guest is MacOS 10.8.5. or CentOS 6.4. > > > > Now I´m confused.
