I have a question about the usage of ipmi_lan_open_session. First off I don't see it used in any of the utilities that come with the distro? Any reason?
I was doing things more "by hand" as in ipmipower until I noticed this call. More specific question if I use the call as follows the Activate Session Application Response returns a completion code of 0xcc (Invalid data field in request) Wasn't sure if I need to pass in something for session_seq_num or session_id??? In the request message the session_id seems be set properly to a temp session id, session_seq is 0 which should be ok yes? Note that if I run it with MD5 as an auth type and provide username and password I never get an app response. By the way it seems to return < 0 but set errno to Success?? ------------------------------ u_int8_t auth_type; u_int8_t *username = "root"; u_int8_t *password = "yada"; u_int8_t priv; priv = IPMI_PRIV_LEVEL_OPERATOR; u_int32_t *session_seq_num; u_int32_t *session_id; session_seq_num = (u_int32_t *)malloc(sizeof(u_int32_t)); session_id = (u_int32_t *)malloc(sizeof(u_int32_t)); auth_type = IPMI_SESSION_AUTH_TYPE_MD5; if (ipmi_lan_open_session(conn->fd, (struct sockaddr *)&(conn->target_addr), sizeof(struct sockaddr_in), IPMI_SESSION_AUTH_TYPE_NONE, // auth_type, username, // password, // sizeof(password), NULL, 0, INITIAL_OUTBOUND_SEQ_NUM, priv, session_seq_num, session_id) < 0 ) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: ipmi_lan_open_session %s\n", strerror(errno)); return -1; } ------------------------------------------- Thanks if anyone can help.
