To expound:
The spice console used in both the case of RHEV or ovirt:
--> http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHEV/
<http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHEV/>=20
--> SRPMS/rhevm-spice-client-3.0-21.el6.src.rpm
=20
We rebuild the above rpm and extract the browser plugins (CABs) and
place them into:
"/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/userportal.war/org.ovirt.engine.ui.u
serportal.UserPortal"
=20
For the ActiveX plugins (MSI)
For now we extract and place them into
"/usr/share/ovirt-engine/resources/jboss/ROOT.war"
We then modify the ovirt engine_index.html with links to install them.
Note if you do this however, due to some mime type idiosyncrasies with
Internet Explorer and JBOSS you will have to add:
<mime-mapping>
<extension>msi</extension>
<mime-type>application/msi</mime-type>
</mime-mapping>
to:
"/usr/share/ovirt-engine/resources/jboss/ROOT.war/WEB-INF/web.xml"

We were able to download the source rpm and build it, then extract the
msi files to manually install spice for windows.

So there are two ways to connect from windows -=20
ovirt portals - does require activex plugin (not built)
spice - (not tried/tested ?) as spice is cross platform (windows and
linux)
=20
So I should just go ahead pull the code, compile and try

you can, but you need to build/get your windows spice client (iirc,
spice still doesn't have one available - cc-ing spice-devel)
If one wants to connect to a guest through Ovirt Portals from Windows
client, he/she needs activex plugin which is not available.
