Interesting. When I ssh to TheLibrarian from my garydale account, I get 
a clean connection but when I did it as you suggested, I got this:

The authenticity of host 'thelibrarian (192.168.1.14)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 9e:e3:f5:04:b4:55:c5:36:ad:e3:e7:44:42:92:0d:08.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?

After answering "yes", it connected. Now I am able to connect using 
virt-manager.

Thanks!
