I realize we would need a server with some cards in it to terminate the connections and then some cards to go in the boxes, we just need a bit more density than 16 ports. weasel http://www.realweasel.com/ ipmi http://www.intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/ Tia -Drew -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joel Jaeggli Unix Consulting [email protected] GPG Key Fingerprint: 5C6E 0104 BAF0 40B0 5BD3 C38B F000 35AB B67F 56B2
