installing Remotely

Hi guyz,

I have a server which is placed at remote location,where Windows 2003 Server is installed. I want to explore an option. Is there any way to Install RHEL remotely. I can't see console, as don't have any KVM.

No. Without a KVM of some sort, even if you mounted an install media (CD, DVD, USB drive, whatever), and booted from it, the console wouldn't be visible, to let you interact with things to get the installation done.

Well... You could install RHEL in a VM running on top of Windows 2003 Server.

Without special hardware, I can't see any way to replace 2003 with RHEL.
