Thanks, but the first part of my output shows that ipmitool is working if i am root. Also, i have the ipmi initscript making the /dev/ipmi0 file with 0644 permissions: crw-r--r-- 1 root root 254, 0 Nov 1 17:21 /dev/ipmi0 so something else is going on. I have a script that runs as user "hobbit," not root, and i need it to have access to ipmitool, and it looks like it should: ID Name Callin Link Auth IPMI Msg Channel Priv Limit 1 true true true OPERATOR 2 rmunsch true true true ADMINISTRATOR 3 hobbit true true true OPERATOR but it doesn't. All the modules load, root can access ipmitool and all commands, the device is there, etc. But no other non-root user can use it. By the above i would have assumed i'd granted null user and hobbit user permission, but apparently i misunderstand something.
