    Yeah I’m using it with X-Forwarding currently for that but I have found that RDP/VNC are a bit more responsive for some stuff.

    That and there’s one Debian host I’ve got which periodically crashes back to lightdm when accessed via virt-manager, but works fine via xRDP.

      That’s not what I meant. The virtual manager application on your device can connect to a remote instance of libvirtd over ssh. The effect is you get a local desktop app that can manage remote virtualization.

        So virt-manager binary run locally but connecting to the remote host. I’ve done that before on Linux but haven’t seen a binary/client available for other OS’s
