Yes, I just figured out this by myself.. The man pages are not clear
about this at all, e.g., an example in ovs-ofctl for remote setup will
go a long way..
And I had to set a port other than 6633 because that port is being used

I am getting connection error when I try to use ovs-ofctl to control a
remote ovs. I am running v1.7.0.
I have my ovs bridge 'lan0' created on a host 192.168.43.148, and I can

punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock,ptcp:6677
right?

Thanks Justin, just now i run the command: ovsdb-server --remote=ptcp:6677.
it says: I/O error: /etc/openvswitch/conf.db: fail to lock lockfile

i found there is a process pid=3456 ovsdb-server
--remote=punix:/usr/local/v
