I recently tried to use a build of ipmitool 1.8.9 on Linux to remotely
access the Lights Out Management device of an Apple Xserve (Intel
architecture). Although I was able to use the current version (2.0.0,
strangely enough) of ipmitool included in MacOSX 10.4.10 to access
said Xserve by specifying a username and password on the command line,
invoking the binary built on Linux with the same parameters resulted
in the following error:

Invalid user name
Error: Unable to establish LAN session
Get Device ID command failed
Unable to open SDR for reading

Does anyone happen to know whether it is necessary to specify some
special combination of parameters to the open source version of
ipmitool to permit it to access Apple's LOM?

                                                L.G.
