hello,

first of all.. i love webvirtcloud.. does exactly what i want it to do.. and all that in a simple appealing way.
though i just hit a bump.
why can't i add a virtual machine to multiple users? why would that be restricted? is there a way to do that?

thanks for all the good work!
best

I found a workaround.
You can give a user superuser permissions.
just open the db.sqlite3 file with your sqlite3 client:

sqlite3 /srv/webvirtcloud/db.sqlite3
update auth_user set is_superuser = 1 where username = 'USERNAME';

And then you have a new superuser who can see all the VMs.

Maybe this helps
