[Users] ovirt 3.1 vnc passwordless setup

[Alexandru Vladulescu]

Hi guys,


I am running Ovirt 3.1 (fresh install -- no upgrade) on some Centos 6.3 
servers; and I did a small setup regarding 2 hypervisors, 1 node 
controller and 1 NAS server providing NFS export, storage & ISO domains 
for the appliances.

All this solution has one server more that's acting as a firewall and 
traffic policy shaping in front of the network setup.

The problem that I am facing right now, is that I am trying to setup 
Ovirt on VNC remote connection in the manner that does not require 
password login with 120 seconds expiration timeout. Somehow I would like 
to map VNC ports on the 2 hypervisor nodes to bond with a vnc reflector 
installed on the node controller, which also acts as a VPN server on the 
setup for out-band connections.

Therefore, users connecting over VPN could get access to the VNC of the 
VMs without entering the web portal and requiring an active VNC password 
with 120 seconds expiration time.

I tried digging through the libvirtd.conf and qemu.conf configuration 
files, found some VNC parameters but none seemed to do the job for my 
purpose. I must mention that I have been looking for a similar setup on 
the Ovirt documentation page as well as googlin' it.


You help will be much appreciated.
