I'm having an strange weird problem while trying to connect to a remote domU
console
The VM runs win2k3, I need to connect on the console in order to change its IP
address
I log into dom0, find the domU ID:
[root at btreptab01 xen]# virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------
0 Domain-0 running
8 linux idle
9 win2k3 running
so I open a new session and tunnel vnc through it:
ssh -L 5907:localhost:5907 root at remoteip
then launch a vnc client
krdc localhost:7
and nothing happens :/
netstat shows the connection as established on both hosts, but I can't get a
console working, just a blank screen
I tried enabling vncserver on dom0, connecting to it, launching virt-manager and
trying to attach to it, same result. It shows a "connecting to
console" message
and nothing more....
the dom0 host is in a datacenter many miles away from here, so walking to it and
working on the server's console is not a practical option
any ideas/help would be greatly apreciated
