Using rack consoles.
Hello all, Have any of you found a way of independently using rack consoles? The tipical problem is: You go to a rack, open it, slide out the rack and hit the print screen or the control key twice to bring up the menu showing each server. You can arrow through this menu and select your server. When the enter key is pressed, you are left at the standard prompt to press control alt delete. When you supply the username and password, you can log in, Most of the servers here have USB ports either on the front or at the back so with a bit of messing around, I could connect a Braille Display to the one that I need to use however my prefered output is speech. So, the problems are: I have no way of reading the menu for choosing what server to log on to. I've no synthesized speech when I launch Jaws on any of the servers. Of course, I can log in via remote desktop, but this isn't always possible. Any suggestions? Their dell racks and machines ranging from 2650 to 2950's. There are I'd guess a minimum of six racks in each server room and all except one of the racks are full. So, you can probably see why this causes a problem. Regards Darragh Ó Héiligh P.S. This is the first of a few questions.
