You know I have a couple machines I use that might fit that description. They autologin to gnome and autostart firefox pointed at say, a cacti page.
When I need to change the url, I update the script that launches Firefox, and and restart X, all over ssh. There's no keyboard or mouse on the remote machine, but there is a monitor. I don't know that I'd call it headless. But it's definitely remotely administered, and still has a screen enabled.
What a fun guessing game.

Not disable the screen. I just want the machine to log in on boot automatically.
I think we're all still confused.
If it's going to be headless and remotely administered, why do you want it to login automatically on the console?
