The slave address value from /proc/ipmi/*/params is what is passed directly in the ipmi_register_smi(), which is directly set as the slave address for channel 0. So unless something calls the set address ioctl, I don't see how that could be broken. Is it possible to boot and not run any IPMI programs? Or, probably easier, the add/remove hotmod interface I described in an earlier email could be used to remove then re-add the interface. Is it still wrong then? Also, what kernel are you using? Is it unmodified from k.org? -corey ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Ipmitool-devel mailing list Ipmitool-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ipmitool-devel
