Hi Andrew,
Thank you for replying. I am using ipmitoo 1.8.9, and in the man page it says:
===============================================================================
tsol
This command allows Serial-over-LAN sessions to be established
with Tyan IPMIv1.5 SMDC such as the M3289 or M3290. The default
command run with no arguments will establish default SOL session
back to local IP address. Optional arguments may be supplied in
any order.
...
===============================================================================
That's why I am trying to use it because I have the M3289 SMDC. Furthermore,
when I try to use it, it seems to work:
====================================================================
-bash-2.05b$ ipmitool -I lan -H 10.16.2.37 tsol
Password:
[Starting SOL with receiving address 10.16.2.23:6230]
[SOL Session operational. Use ~? for help]
~?
Supported escape sequences:
~. - terminate connection
~B - send a BREAK to the remote system
~C - open a command line
~R - Request rekey (SSH protocol 2 only)
~^Z - suspend ssh
~# - list forwarded connections
~& - background ssh (when waiting for connections to terminate)
~? - this message
~~ - send the escape character by typing it twice
(Note that escapes are only recognized immediately after newline.)
======================================================================
But I don't see the terminal, and it doesn't response to any linux
commands. (I
can only use the escape keys, but they don't give me a terminal either) It
seems that this commands is quite obscure to the rest of the community. Do you
(or any one) know who wrote this part of ipmitool?
thanks,
-Frank
