thanks for the reply on this. I wanting the buy the advance package license for the remote media feature and the graphic display so that way I can run the smart start cd wipe the drives and do a fresh installation of free bsd remotely if i want to. With out the advanced package license all i can do is view texted information and power on or off the server, thats really about it. Here is the link to the license package. http://h30094.www3.hp.com/product.asp?sku=1894865 I am 95 percent sure that I was able to see the free bsd installation screen when I was playing around with the 30 day trial. but for $350.00 I want to make darn sure, because im sure once i buy it im stuck with it, weather if works or not. The people I spoke with at HP have no idea how they can give me a few more days on the 30 day trial license to test it out. Is there anyone here who has a DL380 with the integrated lights out that has not used up their 30 day trial that would be willing to test and verify this?
