I have some 2950s that we recently installed openmanage  6.1.0 on.  As
root, omreport works fine.
FYI.... system is running RHEL5.3

A simple command like this works fine as a normal user...
$ omreport  about

Product name : Server Administrator
Version      : 6.1.0
Copyright    : Copyright (C) Dell Inc. 1995-2009. All rights reserved.
Company      : Dell Inc.


However anything that probes the hardware seems to fail with no error...
$ omreport  chassis bios
BIOS Information

Unable to get BIOS version information.

$  omreport storage controller
No controllers found



As root, everything works fine.

I have never had this problem before.    I even downgraded to OM 5.4
to match another 2950 and that didn't work.

Any idea where I could look for logs, enable logging, or even check
dev permissions.    Would be great to see some
kind of error message.

Its important to me that this does not require root/su access as I
have scripts that run to check hardware and would
prefer them to stay running as a normal user.

Thanks!
