(apologies for top-posting  - dumb client)

 I'd even be willing to try compiling the source for freebsd ... however I've found it next-to impossible to locate the source code :-(

I'm trying to configure advanced monitoring for FreeBSD 7.x and 8x installation on Dells recent R-series poweredge servers, and could really benefit from the advanced features provided by the OpenManage.

Seconded, we would dearly like to have more proactive monitoring on our
freebsd servers (lost redundant power supply for example) without all
the extra hassle that IPMI would require.


As a side note, the check_openmanage plugin also works fine on debian 4
etch, 5 lenny and 6 squeeze.
