Hello,

I'm searching a vt-d capable system for one customer. I need to setup a new 
server which need to host one linux and one windows system. The windows system 
need to have access to one analog modem and thus I need vt-d to assign pci-
adresses to the windows guest to bring some usb-ports into windows. I'm 
correct?
Now I'm searching a small 19" rack server from fujitsu-siemens which is able 
to do this. Currently I'm a bit clueless for what I have to search for. All I 
currently know is that all these Servers (RX100 S5 [0] and above) have intel 
mainboards with xeon CPUs. But the devil is in the detail and I'm afraid that 
this is not a guarantee that the mainboard is able to do this virtualizing 
technology. Do someone know if these servers are able to do vt-d or which 
server is able to do this?

Best Regards,
Martin
