For those who still have no idea what one might look like... http://www.prelovedcomputers.com/prodimages/TO-CNT.jpg These are identical to the ones we get with APC racks. Handy and I usually leave them hanging inside the rack door so you know where they are next time. And I bet you all threw them out thinking "Why the heck are my racks shipping with all these bent PCI blanking plates?" Dean On 1/10/10 1:39 AM, Nathan Ward wrote:

If it gets too hard, use a terminal screwdriver.
ETL (Enclosure Technologies Ltd) make good cage nuts that are easy to insert but don't keep falling out at the critical moment:)
It's pretty easy to keep a cage nut tool around. It surprises me how many people have never even heard of one, given they ship with racks and stuff. So much better than messing around with screwdrivers.
Maybe someone will brand some for next NZNOG.
