We have a pool of IP KVMs that is shared between non-critical Development Windows servers
& critical production payment systems:  as the IP KVMs don't allow files upload/download
(the KVM is just like vCenter's console to its Windows guest clients), is this considered a risk?

Access to the IP KVMs are via a couple of controlled PCs housed in a physically secure room though.

I don't have the model/brand of the IP KVM currently but can enquire tomorrow.

I have a KVM for servers, but I want to know how to see the boot process for network devices, such as firewall, SW, router and load balance

Hello Experts, to satisfy the NIST 800-171 requirement for Dual Authentication for privileged accounts we have a way to do this, but we must disable Local Policy to prevent local logons.  The solution we're toying with now is using our KVM to connect remotely.  Only concern if for what ever reason the KVM fails & we have disabled local logons, how would we get past this?

We're running Server 2008 R2 environment.

Hello Experts, I've just started a new job they currently have an Avocent DSR1021 KVM Switch in the server room.  I'm drawing a blank on how to toggle between displays.  I'm used to tapping "Scroll Lock" "Scroll Lock" then either up arrow / down arrow.

I have a KVM switch for the monitor, keyboard and mouse and it also has audio connections. The two audio wires from the switch have the green connectors, one to each system.

My speakers have another wire which is a USB power cord.

The KVM solves the two green speaker wires.
How to solve the need to connect the USB power cord (speaker power cord) ?

What amount of power is feeding the speakers from the pc?
Small current such that a Y connector could be used?

Dear All
The ratio of vertical and horizontal is not correct, which shows short and flat pictures and words in my second monitor of windows 7. After I tried all resolutions for it, it still does not work well. Any expert can give some suggestion ? Thanks

bought an Aten usb to parallel cable to connect a dot matrix printer to the desktop running windows 7.  it seems like the IEEE1284 controller does not communicate properly with the printer and does not remember the settings that we have set on the printer driver settings. where can download and reintall the ieee 1284 controller driver?

Hi experts!

I need to use a software similar to speedfan. Speedfan does its job, but occasionally produces weird results. Whatever you recommend should be personally tested on Windows 8.1 x64. It's only for controlling ASUS Mainboards CPU fans, by the way. The ASUS Software does not run on 8.1

I have a new Windows 7 desktop that is connected to KVM switch. I have another laptop that i switch between machines using one hot key.

The problem with WIndows 7 is monitor turns off after i switch to other laptop.

With my older XP problem I did not see this issue

I check the power setting and it was all high performance and to always keep display on.

How do you fix this issue to keep monito ON for a while?

Hi,
I have this network cabinet that has built in cooling and ventilation where I want to keep my PCs to cool properly and to reduce noise in the room. The cabinet is in one corner of the room and I have two desks on the other two corners of the room.

My goal is to be able to keep the PCs (2 desktop PCs and 1 laptop for now) in the cabinet and from there to run a CAT 5 or any other cable to extend to the two desks and only have my double monitors+ keyboard + mouse on each desk. (ab. 30ft away from the cabinet).
PC1 and Laptop should go to Desk1. PC2 will go to Desk2.

My question is: what kind of a KVM switches\extenders do I need to have in order to accomplish my goal?  

The PCs have both dual DVI + VGA video cards plus  also USB and PS2 ports, the laptop has only 1 VGA port and 3 USB ports

I have been researching this for some time and there are plenty of KVM\extenders via coax or Cat5 (for the extension) but I am not quite sure which product will accomplish the entire goal without compromising on any feature - to be able to use the computers from the two desks using the 2 monitors , to be able also to get the sound to the desk so I can have the speakers on the desk and not hooked up to the PCs and lastly, to be able get from the PCs the correct screen resolution over the distance (at least 1920x1080) without any loss in video quality.

Please see the attached pic, hope it will help to visualize the setup.

Thanks for your input,
