[libvirt-users] virt-manager slow to connect, hangs on new host dialog

[Javi Legido]

Hi Martin.

Can you please share the string that you use to invoke virt-manager?

I use this one:

virt-manager -c qemu+ssh://user@kvm/system?netcat=netcatsocket

And in the KVM hypervisor server I edited /bin/netcatsocket with below
content:

#!/bin/bash
socat - unix-client:$2
