Bug Description

Hello.
I think I found a mistake in OpenStack Compute Administration Manual.

Here we see
http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/getting-started-with-vnc-proxy.html
that VncViewer.jar should be invoked as:
java -jar VncViewer.jar [access_url]

But in such case it gives me error:
java -jar VncViewer.jar http://X.X.X.X:6081/console?some_token
Malformed url

We should add URL parameter before http:// :
java -jar VncViewer.jar URL http://X.X.X.X:6081/console?some_token
Initializing...
Connecting to X.X.X.X, port 6081...
Connected to server
RFB server supports protocol version 3.8
Using RFB protocol version 3.8
No authentication needed
No authentication: success
Desktop name is QEMU (instance-00000003)

Correct this please. I spent several hours looking for a solution :)
