no, there are plenty of us out here... i have two 16 port cyclades  
boxes I use for this purpose.  i've never run into this problem, but  
then I only have 3 boxes running FreeBSD 5.x and I almost never log  
into the console: only for OS upgrades or the extremely rare panic on  
one of the  a dual proc Opteron systems.
