Hi there,

I am having a very strange problem. I have built a git libvirt for our servers  
running ubuntu 9.10. The same built works on all servers but one, which gives 
error information:
21:08:58.827: error : qemudStartup:926 : unable to set ownership of 
'/var/lib/libvirt/qemu' to user 400:400: Operation not permitted
21:08:58.827: error : qemudStartup:932 : unable to set ownership of 
'/var/cache/libvirt/qemu' to 400:400:

This is because I used the --with-qemu-user and --with-qemu-group options in 
building libvirt. 
After hours of debugging, I figured out the problem:
as long as the service binary is not named /usr/sbin/libvirtd, I don't have the 
above errors. For example, I can rename the binary as /usr/sbin/libvirtd.1 or 
copy it to anywhere else and it works.

I am wondering if there is anything so special about this /usr/sbin/libvirtd 
file name. Also, it is so strange that it works for all other almost identical 
servers but this particular one.

I appreciate your help.
