Of course I do Harald. Very few of us are perfect. Thank you for reminding me of my failures. It has made me a better person.
especially om virtualized systems remote management is far easier because you have *one* remote console and if it is regular tested and all clients have the needed access you reach 100,1000,10000 virtual servers without any exception
Another thread, but it would be useful if you explained how this is accomplished.
but back to topic: yes it is *way* too optimistic assume KVM or similar everywhere - for a small business you typically have a *server* as router/firewall *because* you want to avoid the security problems of make crap without regular updates directly reachable from the internet and that includes:
* SOHO routers
* KVM devices
* any embedded device
* VMware consoles
so guess what there is running: a ordinary Linux setup (in my case) Fedora and the only way to access some of them hundrets of kilometers away is just SSH
this we agree on.
