Hello, I want to revive one of my old computer and use it as a personal "cloud host", I want to be able to use and manage it remotely, and I'm looking for a solution for this, this is what I researched:
1. Remote desktop or VNC, but these in-band solutions cannot control a computer which is not in a booted, working condition. (eg. powered off, stuck at POST, crashed, etc)
2. KVM-over-IP, but all I found are big, expensive devices with support for at least 8 or even 16 computers (they are used in the server room), but I only need one.
3. IPMI Server Remote Management card from supermicro, such as AOC-IPMI20-E, but these things are not even compatible with 3rd party motherboard.
Can any one help me to find a way to do this? Thank you very much.
