Hi,
thanks Michal firefox console helped a lot. Got it working with and
without ssl. So I have vnc over ssl between lighttpd and sunstone.

if I configure hypervisors with vnc over ssl (libvirt-vnc) how to marry
sunstone proxy vnc with ssl vnc on hypervisor. is it possible with
current version of sunstone?

thanks
Wojciech
