You seem to be getting these results with the OMSA RPM version of
racadm, what results do you get with the DTK 3.1.1 dell.tar.gz version?
I think that this will make all the difference.
I suppose it is possible that the difference between your RHEL 4.x and
my RHEL 5.4 is significant:

OpenIPMI-2.0.16-5.el5_4.1
# service ipmi status
ipmi_msghandler module loaded.
ipmi_si module loaded.
ipmi_devintf module loaded.
/dev/ipmi0 exists.
I do have some other RPMs and their associated kernel modules loaded,
not sure if they are relevant:
# rpm -qa | grep srv
srvadmin-omilcore-6.0.0-134
srvadmin-hapi-6.0.0-134

That's interesting - I also get a cert error, but it is different, and
doesn't require entering "Y" - the DTK 3.1.1 dell.tar.gz racadm ignores
cert errors unless you run it with a -S argument.
# racadm -r $REMOTE -u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD getsvctag
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - self signed certificate
Continuing execution. Use -S option for racadm to stop execution on
certificate-related errors.

This Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller does not support RACADM
commands.

# racadm -S -r $REMOTE -u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD getsvctag
Security Alert: Certificate is invalid - self signed certificate
Racadm not continuing execution of the command.
ERROR: Unable to connect to RAC at specified IP address.
I'm curious what you see from a system call trace of racadm for local
and remote operation. I get the following:
# strace -e open,connect racadm getsvctag 2>&1 >/dev/null | egrep -v
