So different regular user accounts could launch virt-manager and access the VMs. Wasn't there a dialogue popping up, asking for the root password? Did you do any local config changes, like editting PolicyKit files? > Since upgrading to Fedora 12 a few days ago until root has access -- I tried > editing libvirtd.conf as described in http://libvirt.org/auth.html (setting > none for the sockets and such), but I'm having no luck. Any hints? > Do you mean 'only' root has access? That should be the default behavior, virt-manager basically launches a PolicyKit dialog asking for root credentials. Originally you used to be able to change these privs by making changes indicated here: http://libvirt.org/auth.html#ACL_server_polkit Not sure if that works for polkit-1 in F12 and later. I don't think messing with socket stuff will make a difference if libvirt is using PolicyKit (which it does in Fedora). - Cole _______________________________________________ virt mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/virt
