If you're using Win2k Server, Terminal Server can work just as well as PCAnywhere
for remote administration - and is free.
IIS4 and IIS5 both have HTML-based administration tools, but (a) they can be a
security risk, and (b) are a little flaky.

Dustin,
Yes, it is possible to do this. I do not know of a way to prevent the error
events caused by the keyboard/mouse not being plugged in. You can just ignore
those in the event log/viewer. All the NT/IIS stuff can be done over the web in a
browser....however I would highly recommend putting some remote control software
on it such as PCAnywhere by Symantec.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Make NT an appliance?
Does anyone know of a good way to use a NT box like an appliance? IE - run without
any keyboard or mouse or monitor, and admin through a browser? Imail is taken care
of, but has anyone seen some kind of web admin for IIS? Also Is there a place on
the IPSwitch site to download the IRAdmin.exe? I know you can get it from your
install directory, but I do not have access to the server for the next week or
so....
Thanks in advance.
