A KVM/IP could do the trick but in some case, for example kernel panic, you will be stuck I think. Another solution available (if you have two servers near by) could be to redirect consoles to serial ports If you have some interest about it: http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq7.html#SerCon. But it will not be useful for kernel's panic either... Intel AMT / vPro could help too but I guess this "noname" server doesn't have that kind of technology. Maybe you could take a look at something which seems called "Network AC Power Controller".
