What is the problem with ipmi enumeration Dan mentioned on his commit? What is in the first place desired is local access to local hardware via standard racadm client. Local management is the "big kahuna" here. There were several attempts over the years, yet everything waned away without any solid results. Dell hardware is constantly mentioned on the lists or in the forums, so clearly many of us use it. I myself manage several Dell servers. The lack of local racadm for FreeBSD is daring. On my own and out of my pocket I will offer 50 EUR in Bitcoin to anybody who will solve the problem, i.e. provide a working racadm client which can access and manage local hardware. Of course anybody else is welcome to chime in. I am willing to put that in escrow with a trusted member of the community. Please let me know what to do. Many thanks! -- PG
