Tim, Using the GetUserAccess command, if the 4th byte returned has the 0x10 bit on, the user is enabled for IPMI. This method is valid for all IPMI 1.5 and 2.0 systems.
Sample output from ipmiutil, showing this: Users: showing 4 of max 15 users (3 enabled) User Access(chan1,user1): 0f 03 01 14 : IPMI, Admin () User Access(chan1,user2): 0f 03 01 14 : IPMI, Admin (admin) User Access(chan1,user3): 0f 03 01 14 : IPMI, Admin (root) User Access(chan1,user4): 0f 03 01 0f : No access () Andy -----Original Message----- From: Al Chu [mailto:ch...@llnl.gov] Sent: Monday, August 17, 2009 12:28 PM To: Tim Bell Cc: ipmitool-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Ipmitool-devel] Query if a user is enabled or disabled On Sat, 2009-08-15 at 08:59 +0200, Tim Bell wrote: > Is there a way to tell if a user is enabled or disabled ?

The functionality does indeed exist in IPMI. However, it was added in an IPMI errata (E269), so it won't exist on all motherboards.
