Good point. > Many "server" machines have BIOS options which can enable pre-boot > serial support, and even let you do things like force a hardware > reset. If your "server" is not one of those, there are after-market > cards which provide similar functionality. There are also network-accessible power switches that you can use to toggle the power on the machine. Though, you need to make sure that when the power is turned back on, the machine actually comes back up. Some machines will not "remember" that they were on before the power "failed" and remain off after power is restored. - -- Derek Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] - --------------------------------------------- I prefer mail encrypted with PGP/GPG!
