I would like to setup a new pv domU, but I want to let someone else do the install of the OS (sles10sp1), without giving them access to my xen server. Is there a way I can create the domU, start the install, and have them connect to the domU over vnc (over the network) to do the install they way they want to? How would one do that?

Re: [Xen-users] Allowing someone to do an install over vnc
Hi James u can do that by adding the following in your domU configuration file vnc=1 vncviewer=0 serial=''pty'' u can add these in the end of the configuration file and call start the domu and u can connect to that ving vnc vieviewer on you system. before connection this u also need to change the config file of xend so that u can connect to your xen server from other machines . configuration file is /etc/xen/xend_config (i think u can check this file for vnc allowed networks ) hope now it work for you.
