Ok I solved, it was just a problem with linux permits.

Anyway each time I make a connection I get this warning:
2014-02-26 13:03:25.035+0000: 10825: warning :
virNetTLSContextCheckCertKeyPurpose:364 : Certificate
/etc/pki/libvirt/clientcert.pem purpose does not allow use for with a TLS
client

I want to solve it or understand what it means and what problems could it
lead.
