I've some Windows server that are IPMI capable, under the hand. And I'm seriously considering the option of a mingw port of FreeIPMI, and would be pouring some resources into this effort. A member of my team very quickly tried a compilation, but it has been so miserably failing that he thrown the towel almost instantly... So, would you be considering a mingw effort? How could we help and synchronize? cheers, Arnaud -- NUT (Network UPS Tools) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.fr
