Title:
Enable password support for vnc session
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Opinion
Bug description:
qemu supports that password based authentication is used for client
connections by adding password option for -vnc as below [1].
-vnc 0.0.0.0:1,password -k en-us
qemu xml configuration file provides a VNC password in clear text.
<graphics type='vnc' port='-1' autoport='yes' listen='192.168.1.5'
passwd='YOUR-PASSWORD-HERE' keymap='en-us'/>
but openstack doesn't support to configure vpn password, see the following
codes:
if ((CONF.vnc_enabled and
virt_type not in ('lxc', 'uml'))):
graphics = vconfig.LibvirtConfigGuestGraphics()
graphics.type = "vnc"
graphics.keymap = CONF.vnc_keymap
graphics.listen = CONF.vncserver_listen
guest.add_device(graphics)
add_video_driver = True
