Oooh, that sounds promising, so I rebooted the R210 which I have here, and when I hit F10 it says: Unified Server Configurator does not support console redirection. So, next week when this box gets shipped to the datacentre, I'll have to drive 70 miles to use this "easy" update process. Doesn't sound very "slick" to me. I'll give that a "2-out-of-10 Must Try Harder", I think.... Who the hell decided on that, and what were they thinking? At least I can run the DOS update utilities remotely using SoL and PXE boot memdisk! Tim. -- South East Open Source Solutions Limited Registered in England and Wales with company number 06134732.
