Hey Werner, Glad it's working. Looking through your log, there may have been a bug on the board initially. If the LAN_Privilege_Limit is not output by bmc-config --checkout, it could be b/c the board contains an illegal value, which is due to an error from the vendor on its initial defaults.
It's not clear to me why FreeIPMI 1.5.2 worked but 1.2.9. There's a chance it was "luck", as it's possible other configs on the board had to be committed first. So by the time you tried 1.5.2, it happened to work ..?? :) Al On Thu, 2016-06-23 at 13:21 +0200, Werner Fischer wrote: > Attached you find the log of my tests (I've forgotten to attach it). > > Regards, > Werner > > On Don, 2016-06-23 at 13:11 +0200, Werner Fischer wrote: > > Hi Al, > > > > after further testing the admin found the root cause: whenever he > > uploads a new firmware, he does not preserve any settings.
