I've never used freeipmi, I'm not sure. But the error is not saying you have insufficient privilege, it's saying that it cannot fetch the privilege. If I was guessing, I'd guess that freeipmi is doing a "get session info" command to get the userid for the session, then doing a "get user access" command to get the user privilege level for the user. I don't know why it would be doing this, but I'm guessing one of those commands has an issue in ipmi_sim. -corey > Noel > > > > > On Sat, Apr 25, 2015 at 6:47 AM, Corey Minyard <[email protected]> wrote: >> On 04/24/2015 07:39 PM, Noel Burton-Krahn wrote: >>> I *think* I see how it works.
