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,
