I think that is only on the iDrac8 and some? iDrac7 so on an iDrac6 probably will not have it. We found that the newest java puts in a security fix to remove accepting weak encryption. the 'fix' was to edit /usr/lib/jvm/java-openjdk/jre/lib/security/java.security and comment out the "jdk.jar.disabledAlgorithms=" line. Not great.. but it got the newer javas to talk to the old consoles. I would also uncomment the line afterwords. -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge
