Hi all, I would like to pick your brains for a moment to see if anyone
can lead me to the right direction.

We currently have a number of Linux Servers that are connected to a
Kaveman console in our computer room. This console has been assigned
an IP Address and by connecting to it, allows us to choose the linux
server connected to a defined port.

Here is my problem, our vendor is no longer doing business with the
makers of the Kaveman's, so we are in search of a like device for some
new Linux Servers we are receiving soon.

For those of you who have shops with multiple Linux Servers, what type
of device do you use in order to manage these linux servers with only
one keyboard, mouse and monitor? I would prefer a device which I can
connect to remotley via IP or a Web Browser.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Shawn
