There are several IPMI LAN parameters that need to be set properly, and an IPMI user needs to be set up. Each parameter can be set with ipmitool, or you could use detected defaults for most of the parameters by using ipmiutil.sf.net.
To set up a shared IP with the OS, and to set the null user with a null password, enter 'ipmiutil lan -e -p ""'. Then clients should be able to connect remotely for testing. You would probably want to configure a custom username/password as well for production use.
