>From a security point of view you should know that the drac fence agent communicate through telnet which is insecure. With sniffed login/password an assailant could do the perfect DOS => remotely shutdown your system. However drac 4 and drac 5 can be accessed through ssh but the fence agent don't use it. Perhaps someone could modify the fence agent to use Net-SSH-Perl instead of Net-Telnet one day :) -- Yann. -- Linux-cluster mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
