Hi I'm running kvm on ubuntu 9.04 and I can't get networking to work when I start as user and not root. If I add user to group libvirtd it works. I have a setup with a bridge and I would like for the user to start their own vm either by virsh ot virt-manager. If I run it with: virsh --connect qemu:///system as root or if the user is a member of libvirtd it works but i would like it run it like this: virsh --connect qemu:///session so that the user can setup and run its own vm from his home catalog. When i run it as user and connect to session then I'm not allowed to connect to br0, that is my bridge. Because everything works fine when I'm root I think it has something to do with setting the rights, but I don't know where to look. If someone has any suggestions I would be very happy.
Yepp that's the problem. I would like each user to be able to run their own vm. If I add them to libvirtd they still can't run vms from their home directory. It must be someway to run a vm from the user dir with network functioning some setting file that I havae missed.
