OMSA has no dependencies on IPMI Tool......but if you can get IPMI tool to work locally, then you know the ipmi driver is functional and the problem is higher up in the stack.

Matt will correct me if I'm wrong, but I assumed that the Dell stuff you're installing might have some dependences on userspace tools or libraries. Like the OMSA might be a cgi app that calls `system(ipmitool, @args)`, or something like this, so thus depends on ipmitool being installed??? I'd have thought it worth running something like: find /*bin /usr/local/*bin /lib/ /var/lib/ /usr/lib -iname "*ipmi*" have you tried that? Compare the output from the two systems, using `diff` if necessary. `equery b` can tell you if a file belongs to a package which is installed and managed by portage, Gentoo's package manager. Disclaimer: I don't use OMSA and it's not convenient for me to log into any of my PowerEdges right now.
