To get things like remote management and serial over LAN working, the config has to be right on both the OS and the platform. Others have addressed the FreeBSD end; configuration of the platform is documented here: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/software/smbmcmu but you'll have to figure out which version is applicable to your box. When you have ipmitool working, the output of `ipmitool mc info' may help with that. Also, it seems like your box implements IPMI v1.5, which is rather less friendly than v2. -- Bob Bishop r...@gid.co.uk _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
