The phone is able to connect to the host fine it seems. Actually, my whole thinking on this was a little off. If the host goes down, I won't be able to use the modem to connect to the ILO/RSB. The reason we are considering this is because the servers are going to be at remote client sites where we have no control over the network and placing a DSL or other hard lines are not desirable. --- Will Y. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
