Re: [Freeipmi-devel] fiid_obj_get: maximum_privilege_for_cipher_suite_3: no data set

[Al Chu]

Hi Peter,

http://download.gluster.com/pub/freeipmi/qa-release/freeipmi-0.8.12.beta1.tar.gz

I realized the workaround in beta0 fixed the --checkout part for this
issue on your motherboard, but I had a bug in the --commit portion of
the workaround.  Could you check out the above instead?  Thanks.

Al
