yes, you can remote PC using serial cable,
but maybe you have to set several settings on PC BIOS before you can use it.

Re: more than two dns ip

My bad. I see what you want to do now. You would like your dns server to load balance for you. That is not a function of the primary-dns or secondary-dns settings. You would want those to be the same if you expect the dns server to load balance for you. I believe that would be a function handled in...

Re: more than two dns ip

I am not sure why you need "both of them"? It only sends requests to the primary DNS server unless it is not available. Only then will it go on to the secondary. If you need to issue different DNS servers to your clients, and you are using DHCP, you can reassign those with the DHCP settin...
