There *are* Ethernet-accessible KVM devices, but unless that's what your users have in mind, I think you're okay. The one other possibility to beware of is if they're using a USB keyboard and mouse -- a USB KVM might possibly take other USB devices, such as flash drives, along for the ride. David Gillett

I have some users that want to use KVMs to switch between computers on 3 different / seperate networks. Are there any known security concerns about having networks set up this way? I am thinking that if I can remote into the machine that touches the cloud, I would be able to then by pass security and use that machine to remote into the private network. Any thoughts? Tim
