When connecting to libvirt, some connections may require client
authentication before allowing use of the APIs. The set of possible
<ul id="toc"></ul>
+ <h2><a name="Auth_client_config">Client configuration</a></h2>
+
+ <p>
+ When connecting to a remote hypervisor which requires authentication,
+most libvirt applications will prompt the user for the credentials. It is
+also possible to provide a client configuration file containing all the
+authentication credentials, avoiding any interaction. Libvirt will look
+for the authentication file using the following sequence:
+ </p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>The file path specified by the $LIBVIRT_AUTH_FILE environment
+ variable.</li>
+ <li>The file path specified by the "authfile=/some/file" URI
+ query parameter</li>
+ <li>The file $HOME/.libvirt/auth.conf</li>
+ <li>The file /etc/libvirt/auth.conf</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>
+ The auth configuration file uses the traditional <code>".ini"</code>
+ style syntax. There are two types of groups that can be present in
+ the config. First there are one or more <strong>credential</strong>
+ sets, which provide the actual authentication credentials. The keys
+ within the group may be:
+ </p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li><code>username</code>: the user login name to act as. This
+ is relevant for ESX, Xen, HyperV and SSH, but probably not
+ the one you want to libvirtd with SASL.</li>
+ <li><code>authname</code>: the name to authorize as. This is
+ what is commonly required for libvirtd with SASL.</li>
+ <li><code>password</code>: the secret password</li>
+ <li><code>realm</code>: the domain realm for SASL, mostly
+ unused</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>
+ Each set of credentials has a name, which is part of the group
+ entry name. Overall the syntax is
+ </p>
+
+ <pre>
+[credentials-$NAME]
+credname1=value1
+credname2=value2</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ For example, to define two sets of credentials used for production
+ and test machines, using libvirtd, and a further ESX server for dev:
+ </p>
+<pre>
+[credentials-test]
+authname=fred
+password=123456
+
+[credentials-prod]
+authname=bar
+password=letmein
+
+[credentials-dev]
+username=joe
+password=hello</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ The second set of groups provide mappings of credentials to
+ specific machine services. The config file group names compromise
+ the service type and host:
+ </p>
+
+ <pre>
+[auth-$SERVICE-$HOSTNAME]
+credentials=$CREDENTIALS</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ For example, following the previous example, here is how to
+ list some machines
+ </p>
+
+ <pre>
+[auth-libvirt-test1.example.com]
+credentials=test
+
+[auth-libvirt-test2.example.com]
+credentials=test
+
+[auth-libvirt-demo3.example.com]
+credentials=test
+
+[auth-libvirt-prod1.example.com]
+credentials=prod
+
+[auth-esx-dev1.example.com]
+credentials=dev</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ The following service types are known to libvirt
+ </p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li><code>libvirt</code> - used for connections to a libvirtd
+ server, which is configured with SASL auth</li>
+ <li><code>ssh</code> - used for connections to a Phyp server
+ over SSH</li>
+ <li><code>esx</code> - used for connections to an ESX or
+ VirtualCenter server</li>
+ <li><code>xen</code> - used for connections to a Xen Enterprise
+ sever using XenAPI</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>
+ Applications using libvirt are free to use this same configuration
+ file for storing other credentials. For example, it can be used
+ to storage VNC or SPICE login credentials
+ </p>
