There are several. We have an APC switch that is great, but not cheap. It knows what serial and network connections are and has a nice rack mount. If you have an extra phone line, www.x10.com has a telephone responder that can control X10 modules that go inline with the power. The user calls it and issues ToucnTone(tm) commands to command it. Easily handles 16 hosts, but they have to be on the same UPS. Hope this helps - Jy@ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
