[Xen-users] Re: Disable QEMU monitor in HVM domains

["Rik v. A" <rikratva@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm replying to my own E-mail of 2 weeks ago. I have still found no
way to disable the Qemu monitor in HVM DomUs. I'd really like to
disable it for security reasons, but I can't seem to find anything in
the docs or on Google. Please help (pretty please?)
