By default, SuperMicro IPMI attaches to normal ethernet. So if you hook up a server to a public connection, you've exposed your IPMI. We caught this in a security audit, we added a dhcp honey pot to our static network to see if we could get any devices to announce themselves. We about shat our pants! There's probably a ton of people at risk not knowing this motherboard is insecure by default!

Dedicated v. shared ethernet is going to vary per model and some models actually don't support shared ethernet.

Also even when using shared, that is only a danger when a DHCP server is present and the machines are being admined by a idiot who does not know what they are using.

Working on a product based around these now...

As far as I can tell, the Nuvoton WPCM450 is what contains the Matrox G200ew clone for graphics output. Thanks to XAA being discontinued in X.org, the MGA driver is practically unusable for X at this point(even with an ancient, 2d window manager).

Yet another reason to avoid this hardware.

Blarg? People are using these as servers, not desktops. Given this X support is entirely irrelevant.

Not sure about else where, but here in Chicago cyclists treat it as giving them the right away. It is actually a very major problem when it comes to pedestrian traffic and vehicle traffic here. And that is IF they even bother to slow down instead of just blowing throw a red light or stop sight.

Nah. The disaster here is bad drivers ed not properly preparing people for driving in diverse conditions, which should be must given the wide variety of climate found in the continuous continental US.

The end of labor is to gain leisure.
