Dedicated Server providers without always attached KVM/IP?
Wondering how many of you have dedicated servers with providers and don't have access to a permanent KVM/IP?
I know a lot of providers only whitelist certain IPs for KVM/IP or make you connect to their VPN for KVM/IP access. And that's fine, I'm all for encouraging security of KVM/IP access.
Just wondering how many dedicated server providers don't provide a means to always have access to a KVM/IP for their dedicated server. Or are their more providers that don't provide this versus providers that do provide this?

We offer iDrac access via tenantOS to our servers
its a nice to have but you dont need it. Its rather easy to work around it
Hetzner is another one, almost all their servers dont have always-on KVM, hell you have to pay for KVM after the first hour or whatever unless you bought a dell/whatever server
I havent used them in forever so im not 100% sure if this is still the case
Free for first 3 hours, $12/3h after that.
Now, what I'm wondering. If your system shits itself and you need to rebuild it. Do they charge you or do you get free reinstall again?
it's free again aslong as you go through there install UI
