I tried to build a sol console connection on Dell PE T310/OpenBSD 4.8/ iDRAC6 embedded BMC using ipmitool (downloaded from ports' webpage).
Enabling IPMI in kernel (using config) gives an access to sensors, but I cannot establish any remote sol console connection to this machine even from computers in the same LAN. I googled the web and found no solution (in april 2010 there was a similar question posted here - no answer). Did anyone solve the problem? It's possible to establish something like that? BTW The analoguous solution worked on FreeBSD 8.1 on the same machine I used the same BIOS settings to both systems. Under FreeBSD i set the asf flag, installed ipmitool and it worked. Under OpenBSD i enabled ipmi, installed ipmitool and it didnn't work.
