This rpm also provides a source code to rebuild the module. So it could be used to port it to FreeBSD. But the ilo module is not the only thing to manage a HP server. There are other programs and items, which make the whole management suite. But for the other stuff, not everything is provided with source. -- Regards, Ulf. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ulf Zimmermann, 1525 Pacific Ave., Alameda, CA-94501, #: 510-865-0204 You can find my resume at: http://www.Alameda.net/~ulf/resume.html
