ok, this is interesting.  everything works as expected when i am at the
console of the KVM/Qemu server.  i can use virsh and virt-manager
without sudo.  'groups' command lists me as being a member of libvirtd.

however, the need for sudo arises when i am on a remote system,
connected to the KVM/Qemu server via SSH.  'groups' command does not
list me as being a member of libvirtd when i am connected via SSH.  i am
connecting from a system on the same local network.
