You will probably find quite a few people do. I know I do. I have a monitor hooked up to a keyboard switch that is attached to my Asterisk server but I never click over to it. I use SecureCRT and monitor the console that way only. No need really for a monitor unless you want the graphical view which is not really needed anyway. I can do all I need to do with no monitor at all. I use RedHat 9 and just issue a up2date -u when I need to do updates via the RedHat network as well. I can't think of 1 reason you would HAVE to use a monitor.

Sadly, there is not enough space (or ventilation) for the monitor and keyboard. This will all change when we move to new quarters, but... Does anyone have experience running Linux/Asterisk without a monitor? What, if any, are the issues?
