aSPICE and TrueNAS

[hobbles79]

I'm running a VM on TrueNAS and I need to be able to access OpenCore's boot loader via SPICE.  I can't use the included web client as I need to send specific keystrokes that the web client won't allow (sending Ctrl-Enter).  I installed aSPICE Pro from the Mac app store, but I'm having connection issues.  Any assistance would be appreciated.  There is no firewall between my Mac client and the TrueNAS server.  I am not seeing any configuration settings that I can change that would get around this.  TrueNAS does not support TLS so I left the port at "-1".  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  See log below:

Hello,

This part of the log:

SocketClient: Connection failed: Could not connect to 10.0.1.8: Connection refused

Indicates your Mac cannot connect to 10.0.1.8 at Port 5900.

What does:

nc -v 10.0.1.8 5900

Show in a terminal on your Mac?

Thanks!

Looks like the connection is being refused, and looking at TrueNAS it appears that it isn't listening on port 5900 even though the configuration for the VM has it bound to the local host at the port.

That would explain it. Please keep us posted as to your progress, and thanks!

From the server

Fixed it, needed to change the bind on TrueNAS to 0.0.0.0.
