Issue is not reproducible with OpenIPMI-2.0.6-5.el5.3
Comment 9 Amit Bhutani 2006-12-20 11:26:58 UTC 
Since OpenIPMI-2.0.6-5.el5.3 or higher is not available in a Snapshot yet, we
should keep this open in the MODIFIED state until a later snapshot is made
available to Dell.

OpenIPMI-2.0.6-5.el5.3 has been included in RC Snapshot 6. Marking the issue as
VERIFIED. RH- Please close. Thanks.
