RDP support might be handy…on the other hand at first sight looking at http://sourceforge.net/projects/guacamole/forums/forum/1110834/topic/5236... http://cloudiad.com/analysis/doc1 it looks noVNC would be easier to integrate with. Especially when qemu just recently got direct support for websockets. Then we really do not need anything at the engine side at all.

> http://cloudiad.com/analysis/doc1 it looks noVNC would be easier to integrate with. Thanks for the link - did not know that. I think noVNC has a bit more traction in the industry (with good reason), since is does seem to be a fairly simple & straight-forward client, whereas Guagamole is actually a more generic/general VNC (& RDP) proxy. In theory Guacamole may be extendible to the SPICE protocol, enabling a single interface for accessing instance consoles.

I just tried but don't get any image. What I did was install git on my host, checked out the proxy, started it and used http://www.ovirt.org/How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_Without_Portal#Set_T... in a second terminal to set a password and then used my browser to connect to the proxy with the password. The proxy sees my connection but I get an error and no console There is a VM running with spice on 5900. [root@host02 ~]# ps -f 22058 | grep spice qemu 22058 1 1 13:55 ?
