It's called (I think) Lights Out management options. In higher end models it's build in, in lower end models it's a PCI option. It has it's own power supply, RS232 and Ethernet. I think the DL380 G1 only has BIOS redirection to ttyS0 (which is common on ServerWorks boards). > > -- > guy > > "For world domination - press 1, > or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy > ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
