Fabio,

ok for all concerning rombios ...

My spicec connection keeps on dying with
"Spice-Warning **: red_peer.cpp:128:connect_to_peer: failed to connect:
Connexion refusée (111)"
Then I can't access VM and have to destroy it.

I'm connecting with
spicec -h 0.0.0.0 -p 6000

Any idea?


regards,

greg
