Public bug reported:

Hello Stackers!

I'm trying SPICE Consoles and it is working smoothly! But, I detected a
problem, it is ignoring the entry "spicehtml5proxy_host" in nova.conf
for Dual-Stacked environment (IPv4 / IPv6).

So, it isn't listening on "::".

The following setup doesn't work....

---
[spice]
enabled = True
spicehtml5proxy_host = ::
html5proxy_base_url = http://controller.yourdomain.com:6082/spice_auto.html
keymap = en-us
---

Unless I patch the following file:

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nova/cmd/spicehtml5proxy.py into this:

---
opts = [
    cfg.StrOpt('spicehtml5proxy_host',
               default='::',
               help='Host on which to listen for incoming requests'),
---

As you guys can see, I replaced the default "0.0.0.0" to "::" and now
SPICE Proxy listens on both IPv4 and IPv6! But, this is a hack...

I don't know why it is ignoring the "spicehtml5proxy_host = ::" entry at
nova.conf.

BTW, the "novncproxy_host = ::" works as expected for NoVNC but, I'm
disabling VNC from my cloud in favor of SPICE.

Cheers!
Thiago
