bingo. i see /dev/term/c ... connecting a ttymon to that device yielded a login prompt via ipmitool. i'll need to either reconfig smartos to include that possible device, or find a way to change this in firmware. there appears to be no related setting in the ipmi web service, so i'll be rebooting tonight to peek at the bios. next will be tackling the original problem, which is the magically disappearing network connections (both console os and kvm instance). thanks for everybody's responses. ------------------------------------------- smartos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/184463/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/184463/25769125-55cfbc00 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=25769125&id_secret=25769125-7688e9fb Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
