Re: [Freeipmi-users] help

Hi Al,

after I installed the freeipmi from ports last week, I didn't make any 
settings just ran ipmi-sensors and it listed all the informations. And 
few days ago I just restarted the server and the ipmi stopped working. I 
don't have another mainboard.

It is interesting because ipmi-locate says that I have a BMC device 
/dev/i2c-0 but it isn't listed in /dev/ directory.
