Hello,

"qemu -redir something" listens on the redirected port on all network 
interfaces, and there is no way to override this. This behaviour has 
possible security implications, so please add an option to listen only 
on the specified interface or IP address.

The same applies to the VNC port.

Indeed. Thanks for the tip. But the original "-redir" report still stands.
