I use noVNC with the admin portal and then the browser works as a virt-viewer.

The link was leading to an already dropped page:
https://www.ovirt.org/dropped/admin-guide/virt/console-client-resources.html which points you to http://virt-manager.org/download/ but also explains that you need to add the oVirt Engine's CA into the browser, in case you decide to give noVNC a try.

Hello,

I'm trying to download viewer for connecting to VMs, the documentation
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/virtual_machine_management_guide/index.html#sect-Installing_Console_Components
mentions the URL should be
https://your-manager-fqdn/ovirt-engine/services/files/spice/virt-viewer-x64.msi

However substituting my ovirt-engine hostname for "your-manager-fqdn", I get 404.  I even SSH directly into hosted engine VM and was not able to locate virt-viewer-x64.msi on the file system.

If I go to https://your-manager-fqdn/ovirt-engine/ landing page.  The "Console Client Resources" goes to:
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/virt/console-client-resources/

Which is also a 404.

Am I supposed to be downloading it from here (weary of unsigned publishers, but looks like the only place where this is located)?
https://virt-manager.org/download/

Version is: Version 4.4.10.6-1.el8
Installed on: CentOS Stream 8 (8.5)
