Remotely accessing a physical system as if you are there was the reserve of expensive "server grade" gear until quite recently. PiKVM changes that. In today's video Alex will walk you through the process of configuring PiKVM with Tailscale, and show you a neat trick to control up to 8 servers at once.
Personal accounts are always free on Tailscale and can include up to 3 users and 100 devices. Get started today at https://tailscale.com/yt
