I'm not sure I understand you. Do you think it is reasonable to hang on 'sol activate' if there is no peer on the other end?
My point is that if you hang, fine. But let me quit out of ipmitool normally. As it stands I have to kill the process or ssh session to quit. This seems like a bug to me. Note that in all cases my command line is: /opt/ipmitool/bin/ipmitool -I lanplus -H $address -U ADMIN -E -e! sol activate so the SOL escape character is '!' to disambiguate it from ssh's '~' character. -Federico -----Original Message----- From: Dan Carpenter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2006 2:37 PM To: Sacerdoti, Federico Subject: Re: [Ipmitool-devel] sol usability - freezing in sol activate when pipe broken On 9/6/06, Sacerdoti, Federico <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Assuming I'm logged over ssh that would work.
