I have tried assigning user #1 and also the lan channel password using the following commands: (This is a different machine where the lan channel is 2): $ ipmitool user set password 1 XYZ $ ipmitool lan set 2 password XYZ But still if I run the command with -C0 and a blank password, it works: $ ipmitool -C0 -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.21 chassis power status Password: Chassis Power is on If I run it without -C at all (which the man page says defaults to -C3), or with "-C1" or "-C2" or "-C3", then it requires that I type the correct password. But with "-C0" it allows me to enter a blank password.
