Public bug reported: I Can't connect to none-debian based distros with remote tunel over SSH (qemu+ssh) - virsh / virt-manager.
LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virsh -c qemu+ssh://r...@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/system: ... debug : virExecWithHook:620 : ssh -l root xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx nc -q 0 -U /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock ... As you can see nc is executed with -q option. This option isn't universally supported (at least in CentOS, Fedora, RedHat, OpenSuse), it's debian patch. My system is (K)Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid: libvirt - 0.7.5-5ubuntu5 netcat-openbsd - 1.89-3ubuntu1 virt-manager - 0.8.2-2ubuntu1 Patches which cause this problem: libvirt : 0006-Terminate-nc-on-EOF.patch virt-manager : 0003-Make-sure-we-quit-afer-EOF-on-stdin.patch Solutions: Disable these patches until the nc patch "quit-timer.patch" will be accepted by upstream or distributed into other main distributions. ** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- remotely executed netcat (nc) uses -q option which is not universally supported https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517478 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libvirt 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
