If the guest agent is installed (which we need for the IP address) then RHEV supports RDP to the Windows VM in addition to spice.

If you want to connect from a linux system to a MS Windows VM via RDP, just use "rdesktop".

 

Cheers,

From a Windows client, RHEV supplies an activeX package of mstsc. For Linux this is not possible, so instaed you have to use rdesktop or xfreerdp. I would suggest the latter, as it supports the newer versions of the RDP protocol
