when the directory is chgrp()ed to kvm then I can indeed write to it from the guest. I think it'd be good to show that information somewhere in virt-manager when creating the filesystem share.
it's a bit unfortunate, though. The user need to be either in the kvm or in the libvirt-qemu group. At least the latter seems to be a non standard requirement. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1445386 Title: virtual machine cannot access p9 filesystem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1445386/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
