You need to provide a complete vnc or spice URL, not just IP address.
Comment 3 Zeeshan Ali 2012-07-13 20:47:46 UTC 
Keeping this still open cause this is an indication that we should perhaps provide example URL to explain to user what we mean.
Comment 4 David.Mulder 2012-07-13 21:20:14 UTC 
Ah, I see. I needed to type 'vnc://ip'. Thanks. I didn't realize that.
Comment 5 David.Mulder 2012-07-13 21:22:55 UTC 
Is there some way to do this for an rdp connection?

Don't think we support that yet. Try it and if it doesn't work, we probably don't.
Comment 7 Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-07-20 11:33:04 UTC 
(see bug 674039 for rdp support)
