Ah, yes, thank you, to rephrase what I wanted to say: the question of
Keyboard-Video-Mouse access arises only for a dedicated server, because
for a VPS, you have Keyboard-Video-Mouse access anyway via the control
panel. Depending on the control panel, you may have modest access to the
settings of the Kernel Virtual Machine (e.g., a choice of network and
disk drivers), but you won't have significant access to the settings of
the Kernel Virtual Machine.
