I have an Ubuntu Server, and when I type who, to see who's connected, I can see that there's a user connected, and instead of being logged to a pts/x, he's connected to hvc0. Is there something to worry about?

hvc0 is the Xen hypervisor console. Is the administrator of the Xen host logging into your virtual machine?

Well the user who's connected on hvc0 is me... But I don't even know how I managed to connect there. lol – Pacane Apr 7 '11 at 20:51
