Hi FreeIPMI team,
At the moment, apt-get install freeipmi-tools (on Ubunut 14.04) installs v1.1.5
by default. Is there any way of us getting freeipmi-tools v1.4.9 (or
beyond) installed on Ubuntu 14.04? Albert Chu, suggested that '*invalid
channel number' *issue was fixed in v1.4.9.
I tried downloading freeipmit-tool source code and build bmc-config binary.
However I wasn't able to run the command,
~/freeipmi-1.5.7$ cd ./ipmi-config/
~/freeipmi-1.5.7/ipmi-config$ bmc-config --version
/usr/local/sbin/ipmi-config: error while loading shared libraries:
libfreeipmi.so.17: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Any pointers/ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for considering and taking time for my queries and requests.
Ravi
