Abstract
An information processing unit for operating a server on a network by remote control includes a key code receiving unit that obtains a key code outputted from a keyboard and saves the key code in a memory, before an operating system obtains the key code, a key code control unit that interrupts a transmission of the key code to the operating system, and a communication unit that transmits the key code saved in the memory to the server. It is thus possible to send the key code outputted from the keyboard or the pointing device data outputted from the pointing device to a KVM device on a network without sending to the OS. In addition, it is possible to directly send the key code outputted from the keyboard or the pointing device data outputted from the pointing device to the application that runs on the OS, instead of sending to the OS. It is thus possible to send a special key to the servers without being affected by another application that is monitoring any key input.
