if that client can still be a PC, albeit diskless, it’s still easier and probably cheaper
than any other special hw.

not that i know of, and even that one had (or still have?) some issues with SPICE
performance as it’s not kept up to date

for the VDI connections? I don’t think SPICE supports that, but please bring it up on
spice list to make sure.
if it would be for oVirt user portal then, I guess with pluggable aaa we can support
anything. Ondro?
It depends on use case, if apache module which uses radius is ok, then
yes it should work.
The problem is that we currently support only ldap as authorization backend.
