[Users] spice client support for windows
Hi, I was reading on deploying spice on ovirt here - http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Testing/Spice There is specific line there that says - A Linux client machine with spice client and spice xpi installed (packages spice-client and spice-xpi in Fedora/RHEL). It's not possible to connect to a guest from Windows client through Ovirt yet. Is above still valid? Can I use spice client on windows and connect to guest OS on KVM-ovirt? Thanks, Sawan

you can, but you need to build/get your windows spice client (iirc, spice still doesn't have one available - cc-ing spice-devel)

So there are two ways to connect from windows - ovirt portals - does require activex plugin (not built) spice - (not tried/tested ?) as spice is cross platform (windows and linux) So I should just go ahead pull the code, compile and try On Thu, Mar 1, 2012 at 11:04 AM, Marian Krcmarik <mkrcmari@redhat.com>wrote:
