which client are you using?
Actually, I realize the problem now... my client was a Windows client.
The server is EL6, the VM is EL6. I'll try with a Linux client
later. I'm sure it will work. It's not clear whether SPICE will also
require entering a randomly generated password. The problem is the
randomly generated password. There's probably a way to fix that as
well... I just need to look more. oVirt is terrific, but finding all
the information from a variety of sources and putting it all together
can be tricky .. but I like a challenge! :)
