More digging and I found the sample script in the openipmi source 
directory - never would have thought to look there.  Anyhow when I run 
the sample script is simply blows up with "open failed" and no hint why 
or any explanation of how to run it.  Is this code even valid?  Would it 
make any sense to distribute this code with the perl module rpm and add 
some additional info on how to run it?
