Re: Dedicated console

Wouldn't you need a cross cable?

Or are the adapters smart enough now-a-days to work with a regular cable?

Yeah an ethernet cable between the two should do it.

It does mean the windows box would have to be off the network though doesnt

Based on my limited knowledge of Windows & networking, my best guess is
to
cable the PC directly to the console port in the server. Is that the
best/only way to accomplish this?

FYI, right now I'm working on a generic verbal statement from a VP. I'm
waiting on that VP and legal to provide me definitive clarification.
They
waited until the last minute to spring this on me, so I'm doing "
speculative
