Hi,

I use Xen 3.3, installed from sources. I run a few HVM domains for
clients. QEMU is also from the Xen 3.3 source package.

It seems that the QEMU Monitor is *by default* accessible via the VNC
interface (CTRL+ALT+2) on these domains. I did some research on
Google, and it seems that most people say that it has been disabled by
default since an earlier Xen/QEMU branch.

I am using more or less the default out-of-the box configuration, with
few options changed.
This is of course a big security risk. The monitor should be disabled
by default, and it clearly isn't.

I can't seem to disable it either. I tried options "monitor=0" and
such in the domain configurations, but there's no difference.

I would really, really, really like to change this behavior!

Kind regards,
Rik
