Hi Cole,


I have 2 Virtual Machines here, both running KVM as virtualizer.


Virtual Machine-1
Host - Fedora 12
KVM
libvirt


Vitural Machine-2
Host - Debian 5.0
KVM
libvirt


Previously on Genom desktop of both machines 
Applications -> System Tools -> Virtual Machine Manager

starts 2 windows:-

Virtual Machine Manager
Name
localhost (QEMU) - connecting

and
Authenticate
Password for root

After entering root password -> Authenticate

changes;

Virtual Machine Manager
Name
localhost (QEMU)
vm01
vm02
vm03
....


For unknown accident/cause Virtual Machine-2 (Debian 5.0) changes;

Applications -> System Tools -> Virtual Machine Manager

starts only 1 window, without Authenticate window asking for root password.

Virtual Machine Manager
Name
localhost
vm01
vm02
vm03
....


I don't know why?  How can I change it back to its original state?

TIA


B.R.
Stephen
