        Having a few issues getting this running.

        1. So i've installed Xming.
          Set the Display and Ran the program.

        2. Gone to the Windows Store and installed Ubuntu 18.04

        3. Ran Ubuntu and done and ap-get update
          Then apt-get install virt-manager

        4. ran virt-manager &

        This is where i get the first problem.
        I get the following message:-
        2019-04-26 10_13_12-Window.png

        Do i need to install or run anything else on the Windows Ubuntu instance?

        To avoid seeing that message, you can do this instead.

        virt-manager --connect=qemu+ssh://user@kvmhost/system &

            It’s about managing KVM hosts.

                      Just did this again tonight, and had 1 more step needed now.

                      apt-get install -y ssh-askpass-gnome

                      That is if you need to login. Might not need it if using a password protected ssh key instead.

                        It’s probably still needed if your key has a pass phrase with it.

                              You probably need the export DISPLAY=:0 first.

                                Hi everyone. I got this error when i try to add connection.

                                Unable to connect to libvirt qemu+ssh://[email protected]/system.

                                End of file while reading data: nc: unix connect failed: No such file or directory
                                nc: /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock: No such file or directory: Input/output error

                                Verify that the 'libvirtd' daemon is running on the remote host.

                                Hope anyone could help me here. I am kinda new to wsl or even linux base.

                                Thanks.

                                  does your user chipprel have access? make that user a member of the libvrt group

                                  sudo gpasswd -a chipprel libvrt

                                        Is the daemon running?

                                        sudo systemctl status libvirtd

                                            You run that command on your KVM server.
