Though I would personally try to look for something looking as a thin client but being a “normal” desktop, and load it with a cut-down Linux (or Windows, whatever you fancy) and use remote-viewer. Better performance, better control, likely cheaper.

Hi, I'm currently trying to find a solution based on linux too. If you're interested in details about my research and tests, I can make you a summary : On most linux thin client distributions, spicec and spicy are intergrated. Sadly, they are not real spice clients. As you can find on the spice documentation "spicec is an obsolete legacy client, and spicy is only a test application". The only real Spice client yet is remote-viewer (part of virt-viewer package), by default it works with VNC, but if you want it also to support spice, you need spice-client-gtk (the name of this package can maybe vary betweem distributions). Before developing a solution, you should maybe check Thinstation, which is a prepackaged solution that make you able to create your own ISO files for client. I made once some 65 MB client images. Yet it support very well RDP, ICA and VNC. The only bad point with his solution is the fact remote-viewer and spice-client gtk aren't integrated yet. But it should be integrated soon (I'll work on that when I'll have time) but you can still compile it. However, it takes time to understand how to deal with Thinstation, but the result is really impressive. There are also some other solutions like Netpoldo, but it's using old debian/ubuntu versions and doesn't seem to be still really alive... (and old remote-viewer versions don't really work properly, or when it does there is no sound, cf debian jessie) I hope this helps. I'll try to post here when I will have a working setup from client side.

Hi, here I'm speaking of wired network authentication (and nothing more). What we have in place now: network ports are confined in a VLAN only useful to authenticate the PC (windows). When the PC boots it interacts with the radius server (freeradius) using PEAP-MsChapv2. If the PC is registered in the Active Directory and authenticates against it (at machine level, not user level) the switch port is given a VLAN based on attributes stored in the AD and it is enabled to communicate without restrictions. With Thin Client we would like to have something similar but it would be fine even to directly instruct freeradius to enable the port and set the VLAN on the basis of the thin client MAC address. I've just discovered that Wyse ThinOS thin clients (Dell) support 802.1x, I wonder if is compatible with oVirt... Time to search on the spice lists, as Michal suggested.

You can also use ansible to provision your 802.1x network gear along with the client machines, this way everything is provisioned the same way every time.

Is there anyone in this list willing to share his/her experience on this topic? Probably my search skill is low but I've only seen references to IGEL. Other brands? There is another strong requirement: our network infrastructure makes use of 802.1x to authenticate client devices and it would be highly advisable to respect that constraint.
