I've given up on kvm switches (due to many of the same frustrations you mentioned) and have moved exclusively to the server-embedded remote management cards. If that's an option for you, I'd highly recommend it. Not only does that give you the kvm functionality you're looking for, but it also allow full "lights out" management including the ability to power the server up/down if need be. Many of these cards will also send alert emails to you for hardware failures, power outages, and the like. -Erik On 29 Feb 2008 17:15:17 -0600, duff0097 at umn.edu <duff0097 at umn.edu> wrote: > Any good recommendations on this? > > Supposedly the OS shouldn't really matter.
