It is not entirely clear from the context of your message if the hosted server you reference is dedicated hardware or a virtual machine. So, the meaning of "KVM" is ambiguous. It could refer to kernel virtual machine, in which case the access sounds like it would be direct console access to the host system on which the guest runs. Or it could refer to keyboard-video-mouse, in which case it sounds like they are offering you out of band access to a piece of dedicated hardware. Could you clarify the meaning you intended to communicate? Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sánchez
