You didn't supply a password for ipmitool, so maybe there's not one. To debug this further, try the following from the openipmi base directory: cmdlang/openipmish --drawmsg -x "domain open tdomain lan <host>" This will dump all the raw messaging while trying to make a connection. If you need a password, add '-P <pw>' before the host name. -Corey > (I also tried ipmi_parse_arg2 function but no improvement) > I'm having trouble setting up connection.
