I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a way to do it in IPMItool just yet. The likely reason is due to the fact ... > It would be to userful if the state of the user enabled/disabled was > included in the output of the user list command. the ability to determine if a user was enabled/disabled was not introduced until a relatively late IPMI 2.0 errata (2/15/06 according to my printout). Assuming you have an up to date firmware, I believe the firmware on your Supermicro should have this ability. The feature just has to be added into Ipmitool. I could do this if I get some spare time or perhaps someone else on the list can go ahead and tackle it (it's errata revision 3 dated 2/15/06, errata #E269).
