  Thanks for your great help!

  I installed successfully all dependency RPM by yum. But it report error 
when 
  I'm installing Ovirt.

1) It fails for me by running create-wui-appliance.sh to create virtual 
server.

#bash create-wui-appliance.sh -t 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/9/Fedora/x86_64/os/ 
-k http://ovirt.org/download/wui-rel-x86_64.ks -v

    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virConnectOpen() failed')
libvirtError: virConnectOpen() failed

Who knows why it is?

Then I try to run below command and pass for me.

#bash create-wui-appliance.sh -d "`pwd`" -v

Also, I can start 'developer' successfully.


2) I tried to invoke the main Virt page, but it fails for me.

#ssh -Y root at 192.168.50.2 firefox (or  ssh -fY root at 192.168.50.2 firefox 
-no-remote)
ssh: connect to host 192.168.50.2 port 22: No route to host

What's the ip refer to? Is it refer to the ip address of my own machine?
It still fails for me by trying conncect to myself.

Here is the dummybridge output for my own machine.

#ssh -fY root at 192.168.50.1 firefox -no-remote

Does this fail because of putty? The set up machine isn't on my hand, I 
connect to it
by putty. Do I have to install it on my local machine?

Here is the info of Dependency RPM version on my machine:

kernel-2.6.25-0.218.rc8.git7.fc9.x86_64
kvm-65-1.fc9.x86_64
libvirt-0.4.1-4.fc9.x86_64
virt-manager-0.5.4-2.fc9.x86_64
virt-viewer-0.0.3-1.fc9.x86_64

Thanks!
