KVM for home server ? (feddit.fr)

Hi there, looking for a KVM for my home server to fix it remotely when having an important issue
because wel... My home server isn't at MY home but at my mother's home

I was looking at nanoKVM-USB which I would plug to a raspberry pi, enabling and disabling the remote app according to my need to avoid unnecessary security issues, maybe even unplug it and ask my mother to plug it when needed, what do you think of such a solution ?

Thanks !

Here's a video comparison of 4 common options. He tests uploading an ISO, booting said ISO, looks at out of the box security and how the developers have handled issues.

I personally use the Comet and have had a great luck with it.
