Recent Compaq systems with integrated remote ILO provide a "virtual
power button". In fact they also provide full graphical/console access
over SSL and even booting of the remote system from a local
CD/floppy/.iso image... the client is Java based too. I don't have long
term experience with them or anything, it's just that I saw a demo
recently and I have to admit to being quite impressed.
