Is there a "universal" remote admin hardware which works on x86 PC? I need that to admin some
Linux boxeslocated in remote area, which I sometime need to access the console right after it was boot up. (u know, do things like select different kernel to boot from Lilo/GRUB, changing BIOS CMOS settings, etc).
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionYou have products that allow you to do that, they can transmit the VGA screen and all the rest to the remote box using TCP/IP, but they cost a lot.
It would be much easier if your hardware can be operated entirely via console, this is not a problem for GRUB/kernel, but not many machines have a BIOS that can be accessed this way.
But if you have it, I recommend you to check this stuff :

It worked fine for us when we were testing it on LAN. Of course you could as well use minicom or something similar.

Re: Remote admin products
Or even system messages like "cannot find boot partition", "keyboard is not detected", etc...

Re: Remote admin products
You can get remote/ip based KVM's now-days, you could possibly use one of them.
Also, depending on the type of server, you might have some built-in remote manageability (the HP NetServer L servers all had this).
Failing that, you could always tell the kernel that you have a serial console, and pump everything to an attached modem or something.
All possabilities..
