Grabbed it. I found a netkvm.sys in vista\amd64, vista\x86, and in an x86 directory in one of the xp trees. I am guessing I want the Vista one for Win2008R2? And the XP one will work with Win2003?
I want to test this on my Win2008R2 virtual machine, but I don't have local access to the host anymore. I've tried using xming and putty to run virt-manager and display on this Windows PC, but virt-manager just doesn't respond well in that environment - several minutes to even display a VM console. In the hopes that a Linux X server might work lots better, I can rig one up here, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to display it on a Linux X server? On the X server here, I can do xhost +, but how do I set the display back to here on the X application client - the RHEL system at the colo site? And a question - this version is 0.1 - are we **sure** this is newer than the 1.2.1 version available via yum? What does WHQL'd mean? I'm guessing it's a checkin process?

Latest WHQL'd drivers will always been on RHN bit.ly/virtio-win So the latest ones today are here https://rhn.redhat.com/rhn/software/packages/details/Overview.do?pid=631 726 Latest source is http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers Which points to http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/virtio-win/latest/images/bin/ which *should* have the latest signed (not whql'd) divers But, it looks like they haven't been updated on that last link, so we'll fix that.
