Next "disable" thread?

Keep in mind that hp-ux is using only keyboard and mouse on USB (and some specific CD/DVD drives).

Put your server in a secure room and forget all this disabling ...

It can be connected, but devices like thumb drives, disks and so on will not work.

Hi,

Your server is an Rx2600, I think you can mount the thumb drive in EFI shell not in the OS.

But, Kindly dont ask me how you can desable that.

Hi,

Try disabling the USB driver from the kernel using kcweb.

Keep in mind that the usb keyboard and mouse will not work
