[Fedora-xen] RHEL Update Virt-Manager VNC Problems

[Jim Klein]

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I did all that. Interestingly, it seems to be related to the subnet I am in (am using ssh to connect to the host.) I am investigating further, but it appears that If I am on the same subnet as the host, it works. I was working before on the other end of an ipsec tunnel, where I got no love. Pretty sure this all worked before, but will need to spend some more time digging to figure it out.

Use 'virsh dumpxml' to look at the running domain config. It should show 
you a element like "<graphics type='vnc' port='5900'/>". If the port 
number is -1, then its failed to start VNC for some reason. If the graphics 
tag is missing completely then the config file is wrong.
