[Spice-devel] can't connect with virt-viewer on windows

[Marten Lehmann]

Thanks. I didn't notice the executable remote-viewer.com, it works fine 
with spice://server:port.

But what would be the correct URI for virt-viewer? I looked up the id of 
the vm, but

virt-viewer.exe --connect qemu://server:port/ id

gave the error "Unable to connect to libvirt with URI qemu://server:port/"

Kind regards
Marten
