Hi All,
Never mind, I found how install 1.4.9. version on Ubuntu 14.04. I also was
able to issue bmc-config commands with '--lan-channel-number=3' without any
issues.
Thanks for the support Albert Chu.
FYI steps to install 1.4.9 on Ubuntu 14.04
wget -O- http://neuro.debian.net/lists/trusty.us-ca.libre | sudo tee
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/neurodebian.sources.list
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net:80
0xA5D32F012649A5A9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install freeipmi-tools
sudo apt-cache madison ^freeipmi-tools
freeipmi-tools | 1.4.9-1~nd14.04+1 | http://neurodeb.pirsquared.org/
