Bug Description
With the new version of ipmitool, 1.8.12, you need to include a default option of -C3 for lanplus to work with OCP. Without -C3 ipmitool comes back with invalid role. Using -vvvvvvv to debug there is a difference in the open session request.
Without -C3

Description of problem: 1.8.11- 11.fc17. x86_64 on f18.
"ipmitool sol activate" can not open session. Tried with Intel S1200BT & S3420GP & S5520HC MoBos. It was work in 17 and works again if I downgrade to ipmitool-
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.8.12- 5.fc18. x86_64
ipmitool-
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. IPMI_PASSWORD=*** ipmitool -I lanplus -U <username> -E -H <ipmi_lan_addr> sol activate
Actual results:
"Info: cannot activate SOL payload with encryption"
Additional info:
I compiled upstream (unpatched) packages from Sourceforge with my f18 and I found the problem is at upstream: ipmitool-1.8.12 fails, 1.8.11 works - same configure options and exactly same environment. I have not found a working setup or any workaround with 1.8.12.
