That is correct...I am unable to do it from either Windows or Linux, which suggests to me that I have something slightly out of whack.

Could someone detail for me what certs should reside where after I run the script, i.e.

Server side:  	/etc/pki/libvirt-spice/ca-cert.pem
			/etc/pki/libvirt-spice/ca-key.pem
			/etc/pki/libvirt-spice/server-cert.pem
			/etc/pki/libvirt-spice/server-key.csr
			/etc/pki/libvirt-spice/server-key.pem
			/etc/pki/libvirt-spice/server-key.pem.secure

Client side (Linux):	ca-cert.pem as /etc/pki/tls/certs/spice-truststore.pem*

*I had to guess on the path, but I specified the file on the spicec command line with the ca-file flag, so I would expect location wouldn't matter in that case.

Client side (Windows):   ca-cert.pem as C:\Documents and Settings\MyUserID\Application Data\spicec\spice-truststore.pem

I cannot see any obvious mistake in configuration (except for those commas in first post). Maybe It would be worthy to check the problem and possible fix which Thomas reported a while ago - http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2011-June/004156.html and filed a bz https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38615. I remember that elmarco was touching this part of code (related to host subject) a while before Thomas reported the problem.
But Thomas was able to connect to a guest using spice client on Linux machine which Jeffrey is not if I understand it correctly.
Maybe It would be useful to see qemu command line created by libvirt.
