| Just to let you know, my plan is:
| 
| 1) wait for savannah to go back up.  2) fix freeipmi lan stuff 3)
| upgrade ipmipower to new freeipmi 4) then release
| 
| Also, as a side note, I also have two new sub-projects.  "rmcpping"
| and "ipmiping".  For the most part, they are the ping(1) program, but
| using rmcp pings or ipmi get authentication capabilities requests
| instead of icmp pings.  These have been very useful for me in setting
| up/fixing ipmi setup problems.  (Note to LLNL folks, I hope to put
| this code on CVS within the day, they are on my laptop right now.)  I
| need to go through the open-source paperwork again for these ...

They are pretty useful tool, because BMC doesn't handle ARP or ICMP.
and when there is no host operating system, or when BMC IP address is
different from HOST IP address.
