[Libvir] SOLVED Re: cannot use vncviewer and VMM graphics console to access HVM guest on RHES 5

[Glen Deem]

Thanks to Igor Chubin (spasibo) and Richard Jones, the qemu vnc server
was listening but I did not connect to its proper port (why libvirt
doesn't use <IP>:<domU id> kind of vnc connection and restricts the
server to local host only by default?).

Regards,
Glen
