That error makes me think it's something to do with ipv6 vs. ipv4. But it's tough to say without more details. Does this fail? nc -l 127.0.0.1 5900 Try with -4 and/or -6 switches. If so, there's something wrong with your host network configuration independent of qemu. If that doesn't fail, I'd grab the qemu command line from /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$vmname.log, and try to reduce it to a minimal reproducer. Maybe something like: qemu-kvm -netdev bridge,br=<BRIDGENAME> -spice port=5900,addr=127.0.0.1 You would need to alter the whitelist in /etc/qemu/bridge.conf for that to work. Then stuff all the details in a qemu bug report. - Cole _______________________________________________ virt mailing list virt@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/virt
