The question is: can I gain access without one?
The system with no keyboard is 4.8, the rub is it is configured with
an IP address not on the LAN. I have physical access to the system.
I tried: route add 204.156.12.157 -interface ep0 and sorta got what
I wanted.
The best way would be to do something like
ifconfig ep0 inet 204.156.12.156 netmask 255.255.255.0 alias
, since you have no guarantees that the remote system has a route back
to your real IP address. With an aliased IP, the remote system should
realize it's talking to a machine on the same subnet.
Just make sure the ip address you pick isn't already in use.
