Hi, sorry for asking a simple question, but i'm confused. What is virt-viewer intended to be ? To connect directly to virtual machine consoles, e.g. with VNC ? Or connect to libvirtd which runs e.g. on a remote linux host ? Or both ?
If i'm able to connect to libvirtd on a remote host, what can i do ? I think the functionality of virt-viewer is limited compared to virt-manager. This page (https://libvirt.org/windows.html) gaves me the impression that i can connect with virt-viewer to a libvirtd on a remote host. I tried to connect to a libvirtd on a linux host host using virt-viewer and the following in the adress bar: qemu+tcp://192.168.100.10 and qemu+tcp://192.168.100.1016509, but didn't succeed. The port 16509 on the linux host is opened in the firewall and libvirtd is listening on it. Is virt-viewer able to do this ? Thanks.
