Connect to omp client running on a different host on the network #21

Hello.I am in an office in which we have a vm running OpenVas. My question is whether I can connect to the omp client running in that vm from a different machine.

I tried to use the following code

HOST='an ip address'
with Client(host=HOST,username='username',password='password') as cli:
    cli.list_tasks()

however I get a Connection timedout error(Errno 110).

Any ideas if that's possible? If it is I would appreciate a code snippet

Hello, you may find these docs from my fork of pyvas helpful (I'm hoping that this fork will get pulled in soon). It isn't that difficult to set up, but I found that the available documentation wasn't helpful, so I tried to document what worked for me, so others could benefit. Hope it helps you!
