You just need some proper DST and SRC Nat rules and you should be fine.
I use mikrotik so its slightly different but the same concept applies. For
windows, I don't know, never really cared much as no one uses windows on
our ovirt setup :)
But the client tools you linked are for the client accessing the spice
session.

So the spice proxy would be going out the firewall then looping back in
(also known as "hairpinning"), which in my experience is usually a
behaviour denied by many firewalls as standard, which is what I believe is
happening here.
This then becomes more of a firewall issue as you're spice proxy is

I agree. Would you be willing to share the current IPTables rules on your
external firewall so I can confirm this? (sanitised appropriately for
actual IPs and/or hostnames, of course) You can contact me off-list if you
prefer. This is more for curiousity/confirmation than anything else.
I know that when I was on the same LAN as the oVirt box, I had to edit my
local hosts file to point the proxy value to the oVirt box itself for the
remote-viewer to connect to the Windows desktop.
If that is indeed what is happening here, I think a better (and more
universal) solution would be to have a VPN connection from the remote end
user to the network where the oVirt/RHEV server is (site-to-site if the
users are in an office and "road warrior" for remote individuals). Not
sure how much of a performance hit that might make, though. Will need to
do some testing.

I took a look and the proxy settings are correct.
The windows issue is probably just related to non proper drives installed.

On the machine I am connecting from or the virtual machine I am connecting
to? I downloaded the client from the link here:

Is there a different SPICE client for Windows that is recommended?
