I have two remote boxes. My colocation hosts have strung a crossover serial cable from com1 to com1 on these boxes. The idea is that if I paint myself into a corner on one box, I can get access to it from the other box via the serial cable. But... I will need to set up serial consoles on each box in advance of a problem arising. But won't I get a race condition with each box thinking the other is trying to login?
