Which version of virt-v2v?

The latest version can be found by reading the instructions here:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-April/msg00038.html
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-April/msg00039.html

Please don't use the old (0.9) version.

 Have you used the below format in the .netrc?
 machine esx.example.com login root password s3cr3t

 Additionally, have you set 0600 as permission to .netrc?
 chmod 600 ~/.netrc 
The new version of virt-v2v does not use '.netrc' at all.  Instead
there is a '--password-file' option.  Best to read the manual page:
