Press Release Body: Toronto, ON - April 10, 2008 Cirrus Tech Ltd, a Canadian Web
Hosting Company, is offering "complete control" of its dedicated servers to clients
through KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) over IP technology. By purchasing all its
Intel Dedicated Servers with KVM over IP hardware pre-installed, Cirrus Tech is
providing this feature at a low cost with minimal set-up time. With KVM over IP
added on to any Intel Dedicated Server Plan, clients will be able to have remote
access to their dedicated server to install and run applications, and troubleshoot
all the way down to a BIOS-level.

Ali Mirdamadi, Product Director at Cirrus Tech, explains, "Connecting through
Windows Remote Desktop, SSH, or other remote console software is sufficient for most
of our dedicated server clients. However, we have clients that require access to
their dedicated server to a hardware level. Our KVM over IP solution allows for this
level of access."

About KVM over IP

KVM over IP technology allows IT administrators to manage their dedicated server
even when remote access software is no longer functioning. As long as the dedicated
server is powered, administrators will be able to have BIOS-level access to it. They
could even reboot their server and watch the booting process from a web browser if
they wanted to.
It is as if the user's keyboard, monitor (video), and mouse are all physically
connected to the dedicated server. Without KVM over IP, a user will have to go
through the hosting company's technical support if they cannot resolve their issue
through a remote console. Also, web hosting companies will charge a significant fee
to visit their data center if a client wants access to the physical hardware
location. KVM over IP eliminates the need to be at the physical location of the
dedicated server to configure or troubleshoot hardware.

Some additional benefits of KVM over IP:

. View details of any stop error messages (Windows Blue Screen)
. Configure Ethernet settings without accessing your control panel
. Reset your server remotely
. Partition your server after initial OS is installed
. Configure firewall routing settings so that you'll never be "Locked out" of your
server
Cirrus Tech offers KVM over IP on all its Intel Dedicated Server Plans as an add-on
service on a monthly or per-use basis.
