I'm looking for some entry level 1U rack server having LOM like feature,

even poweron poweroff if available.

All of Sun's fairly recent servers have a LOM feature. CUrrent 1U models (in no
order) include: X2100 (amd64), X4100 (amd64), T1000 (SPARC), V210 (SPARC). All
of these comer with LOM, either standard or as an option.

Have a look at www.sun.com/servers for more info.

Sun Fire V210, but ultrasparcIII isn't supported by my OS of choice, netbsd.

I strongly recommend using Solaris on these machines. What does NetBSD give you
that Solaris doesn't?
