Some Sun machines ( Including the V490 ) have RSC built-in.

At work we have a Sun SunFire V490 test machine (with dev/production coming late summer). I'd like to access the console (e.g. for boot PROM access) remotely via network. Is there a built-in way to do that, similar to HP's iLO (integrated Lights-Out) management port? Or do I need some kind of serial->LAN adapter? Or just set up a PC running Linux beside it? :-) We've got lots of those kicking around! _______________________________________________ Roundtable mailing list Roundtable@muug.mb.ca http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/roundtable
