Hi, Recently, as I run the qemu command to bring up windows guest, it aborts with a vnc error
$ qemu -m 3000 -cpu Opteron_G5 -hda qemu-vm/win2xpsp3_32_c.img -hdb qemu-vm/win2xpsp3_32_d.img -boot c -usbdevice tablet -enable-kvm -device e1000,netdev=host_files -netdev user,net=10.0.2.0/24,id=host_files,restrict=off,smb=/home/mahmood,smbserver=10.0.2.4 -vnc :1 qemu: -vnc :1: Failed to start VNC server: Failed to bind socket: Address already in use It seems that another user is using his own guest with vnc :1 saremi 31191 5.4 4.7 3624016 3133112 pts/31 Sl+ 12:00 14:10 qemu -m 3000 -cpu Opteron_G5 -hda qemu-vm/win2xpsp3_32_c.img -hdb qemu-vm/win2xpsp3_32_d.img -boot c -usbdevice tablet -enable-kvm -device e1000,netdev=host_files -netdev user,net=10.0.2.0/24,id=host_files,restrict=off,smb=/home/saremi,smbserver=10.0.2.4 -vnc :1 The same error exists for :2 but :3 is free. That mean, I have to ask all users which port they are using. Any idea? -- Regards, Mahmood
