[Xen-devel] HEADS UP: HVM vncserver will only listen on 127.0.0.1 interface.
I''ve just checked in the changes from Jeremy and Daniel to make the
vncserver for HVM domains only listen on the 172.0.0.1 interface.
This is a change of behaviour in that off-host vncclients will no
longer be able to connect by default. See changeset comments for how
to restore the old behaviour.

description:
[HVM/vncserver] Implement a ''vnclisten'' option to limit the
interface
that the VNC server from qemu listens on.
Defaults to only listen on 127.0.0.1
The old behaviour (listen on all interfaces) can be restored, by
- changing the system-wide default in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp by adding:
(vnc-listen ''0.0.0.0'')
- changing individual domain config files by adding:
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
Also allows specifying the hostname associated with an interface to limit
to that interface.
