Apparently id does not include groups. Virt-manager does
run as a user though
I was unable to get that to work the way I would expect. I would expect no authentication
needed.
[egreshko@f32g etc]$ grep users group
users:x:100:egreshko
libvirt:x:983:@users
When I start virt-manager from the command line I get a pop-up which states.
"System policy prevents management of local virtualized systems"
And authentication is required.
If I do things the way I would normally do when I start virt-manager no additional
authentication
is required.
