Sunfire 280R and Remote System Control (RSC)

I have a sunfire 280R machine, and I was wondering if RSC can be loaded onto it. The sunfire page says that it can, but the RSC page lists much newer models as system requirements for the software.

Also can anyone tell me if the RSC provides a windowing environment for the machine (i've been trying to figure out how to get remote access to a linux windowing environment without much success. I've installed cygwin/x on my windows computer)

Thanks!

Hello,

as the name implies the RSC allows to control and monitor the system from remote via serial or ethernet.

The lastest version can be downloaded from

http://www.sun.com/servers/rsc.html

I'm running RSC 2.2.3 on an E250 (the F280R and the other systems listed on the above page are supported as well).

Also can anyone tell me if the RSC provides a windowing environment for the machine. (i've been trying to figure out how to get remote access to a linux windowing environment without much success. I've installed cygwin/x on my windows computer).

No, it just the client/server application to communicate with the RSC hardware.
