Sounds like most furnature companies delivery window schedules.

naw, its not insecure.

the way most co-lo facilities operate is like this.
basically, all our control panel for the server resides on a seperate box... the main server controller server. i guess you could compare it to a domain controller. 128-bit encryption logs you into that box via the cpanel software. from there, that ssh's onto our box passing through the DMZ.

its actually a pretty good setup.

cuz how else would i be able to login to my server to reboot it if its down? lol

Yeah, I know. I'm just giving you shit. I always use a multilayer setup to run my servers when I do run them.
