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

[Al Chu]

Hi Peter,

Ok, try #4 :P

http://download.gluster.com/pub/freeipmi/qa-release/freeipmi-0.8.12.beta3.tar.gz

I think it was assuming you had to input ALL cipher suite ids, instead
of just the ones that were supported on your motherboard.  Hopefully
it'll work, but there's still the potential there's an additional IPMI
problem on the motherboard when we do the actual write (thus far, the
bugs have been setting things up for the write).
