I just wanted to add that indeed, I am able to use the DRAC4 console on Linux with Firefox. I'm using Fedora10/x86_64 with Firefox 3.0.x. It is a Java app, so as long as it you have working Java for your Firefox, it should work. The Virtual CD/media is another story... it has worked on and off for me; not reliably. The console works 100% of the time for me. I should also mention this is a DRAC 4/P in a PE1800 in rackmount configuration. -Bond _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
