OpenStack Compute (nova)

nova-vncproxy with SSL

Asked by David Thomas

Is there a way to configure the nova-vncproxy service to use SSL for the port it listens on (e.g. 6080)? If not, has anyone attempted to modify the service to work over SSL?

Thanks for any help.

I haven't tried it with nova-vncproxy but I used stunnel for SSL with
nova-api and it worked pretty well. Might be something to try out.

Yes, I had thought about using a tunnel but unfortunately those aren't allowed on the network where this would be running. But thanks for the suggestion.
